A team of 20 will continue their search for a woman missing in the Lake Coleridge area of Canterbury, as temperatures drop below zero.
Police began searching for Elise Davenport earlier today, and a spokesman said a group of 20 search and rescue volunteers would continue the looking for her into the night.
Ms Davenport wandered off following an argument with a friend on the side of the road, police said.
There are concerns for Ms Davenport's well-being, as she has only recently arrived from England, has no knowledge of the local area and will be facing particular challenges with the temperature in the area expected to get colder overnight.
She is described as about six foot two inches tall, with white-blond hair, and is reported to be wearing a black top, red shoes, and black track pants - possibly with a pink stripe.
