Edan called triple zero at 4:07am nearly two months ago and hasn't been seen since
Police are looking for a female witness who might have seen a man missing from the Sunshine Coast hinterland since January.
Edan Huntington, 28, was last seen in Montville on January 18.
The Gold Coast man was staying at a holiday home with his father when he left suddenly in the early hours of the morning.
His last phone call was to triple zero about 4:07am where he asked for help and said he was lost.

Sunshine Coast Detective Senior Sergeant Craig Mansfield said police have received new information that indicates Mr Huntington was in Montville at 4:12am on Main Street, near Hoffman Court.
"We have a witness who's come forward to say that the missing person's vehicle was just parked in the middle of the road on Main [Street] road there at Montville, and a female was seen to be walking in the vicinity of that vehicle, about 100 metres away from it," he said.
Detective Senior Sergeant Mansfield said there are no suspicious circumstances relating to Mr Huntington's disappearance, but he hoped the woman could help police with their investigations if she spoke to him.
"We're really trying to fill in the gaps as to what she saw or heard, or if she engaged in any conversation with him whatsoever," he said.
The woman is described as being in her late 30s to early 40s with long, dark hair which was tied back.
She was wearing a white shirt and maroon and purple shorts with a black bag.
Mr Mansfield said Mr Huntington had a complex past.
"Edan has some known associates that have come to our police attention in the past," he said.
"There are some people there that have committed fraud and identity theft and some things like that, that we're investigating at the moment.
"That also presents as a challenge as to which identity is real and which one isn't, and there's a number of mobile phone traces that we're trying to do to establish who these people are and where they fit into the picture."
