Ryan Shtuka - Sun Peaks - B.C. Canada
February 17th, 2018: after a night out at Sun Peaks Resort in British Columbia, a 20-year-old leaves a house party for the short walk back to staff housing and is never seen again. A winter storm batters the mountain village with plunging temperatures, gusting winds, and fresh snow. Search dogs, helicopters, drones, and hundreds of volunteers scour the resort and surrounding terrain, but find nothing. No body, no clothing, no phone, no trace. Join us this week as we investigate the haunting disappearance of Ryan Shtuka.<br /><br /><b>Episode note: We apologize for the weird background hum.
