Authorities entered her hotel room and discovered her passport and credit cards, as well as a map of the area. Her family believe she just went out for a week and has probably fallen an is in need of help. They are now on Lanzarote helping with the search, which has included a dog team, rescue helicopters and volunteers joining in the search.

Spanish authorities are still searching for Margaret Holt, who was last seen just outside Órzola between 6-7pm. She was wearing just a vest, shorts and sandals and carrying a small hiking-style bag. Her family says Margaret is in incredibly good shape, and a walk of 20 miles a day would not be out of the norm for her.
