Tasmania Police Update

Despite extensive search efforts in the Cradle Mountain area over the past few days, Victorian man Christopher Inwood has not been located.

Today, we made the decision to scale back the active search for the 52-year-old.

The area in Cradle Mountain where Mr Inwood was last believed to be has been comprehensively searched, and police will continue to follow up any new leads or information that may assist in locating him.

Our thoughts remain with his family during this difficult time.

Given the length of time he has been missing and the harsh weather conditions in the area, expert advice indicates his chances of survival are extremely low.

If anyone has information about Mr Inwood’s location or his recent movements, please call police on 131 444.

I went walking Tues morn to Wed arvo and saw the van not long after it was discovered, didn't know anyone was missing at that point, but what I saw was weird. I heard via my inreach that evening from my husband that someone was missing and figured it had sonething to do with the van. Westpac chopper out stopping off at the huts on the Wednesday.

Sad whatever has transpired as I imagine no good news to be had.
