Source: abc News
A woman missing for over two weeks in the Makawao Forest Reserve on Maui, Hawaii, has miraculously been found alive, a family friend and rescuer confirmed to ABC News.
Amanda Eller had been missing for 16 days when she was found in good condition at about 5 p.m. local time.
"We found her in a stream bed, she was waving up at us while we were in the helicopter, and we got her out nice and safe," Chris Berquist, who was in the helicopter, told ABC News Radio late Friday.

Yes. Further, you have a good chance of getting out to the ocean where you'd be more visible.
