A young girl who was stranded alone in the Washington state wilderness for more than a day has been praised for her courage and resourcefulness.
Ten-year-old Shunghla Mashwani went missing on 4 June while her family members walked back across the river to a parking area at the Cathedral Pass Trailhead in the Cle Elum River Valley, according to the Kittitas County Sheriff. When the group of around 20 adults realised they’d lost Shunghla, they immediately went back and started searching.
