Overview
- Police launched a foot search on Thursday after another walker reported hearing cries for help about 8:40am, then found a woman’s body around 10:30am on Mount Tibrogargan.
- Officers said they will prepare a report for the coroner and have not released the woman’s age or a confirmed cause of death.
- Investigators said the woman may have been hiking alone and may have fallen, which remains an unconfirmed line of inquiry.
- Reporters at the scene observed police inspecting a car parked at the base of the mountain as inquiries continued.
- Mount Tibrogargan sits in the Glass House Mountains about 90km north of Brisbane, where officials warn summit routes involve steep, exposed rock with loose stones, and the death follows last month’s double fatality at nearby Mount Beerwah.
