For anyone else not familiar with the area, here is a Wikipedia page about Sun Peaks Resort. Looks like a pretty heavily wooded area surrounding the last seen location.. :/ Hope this young man is okay.

any water on his route home or nearby?
that's my first thought in cases of young men last seen leaving a party
also, the potential for being drugged involuntarily worries me

Kamloops Search and Rescue has suspended its search for a 19-year-old who went missing in Sun Peaks over the weekend although the RCMP continue an investigation.

The team said Monday on Facebook that 22 members and 74 volunteers worked all day Sunday combing the area with snowmobiles, dogs and drones.

Meanwhile, the Kamloops RCMP is asking for help from the public in locating Ryan Shtuka.

"We have had the RCMP helicopter out today searching the area as well as we'll still be making patrols with the police dog service so our investigation is still very much ongoing," said Cpl. Jodi Shelkie with the Kamloops RCMP.

So worried for this guy, but with a happy result on a MP in California today, trying to remain hopeful!

Very cold up there tonight and so it's almost better to wish for other scenarios than 'lost'.
Please be safe and some place warm Ryan.

Kamloops Mounties are urging Sun Peaks residents to check their sheds, garages and vehicles and to review any security footage they may have as the search for a missing 20-year-old man.

This sounds like the Alison Raspa disappearance case.
I hope LE is doing a detail job of interviewing the other guests at this house party.

The words "is believed to have..." are troublesome IMO FWIW

...left the party
...been headed home

:moo: :cow:

..."Well if somebody is disoriented, they are seeking shelter. It was snowing that morning and it was cold out," said Kamloops RCMP Cpl. Jodi Shelkie.

"There's those feelings of hopefulness and then there's the harsh reality of knowing that if he's in the elements, at this point in time, we are looking at recovery," Heather said. "So that's hard as a parent."

RCMP are asking the public to contact them at 250-314-1800 if they think they saw Shtuka after 2:50 a.m. on February 17.

Yes, troubling indeed. I've not seen anything to say how many people attended the party and how many were still there just before he left. If there were dozens still there some sort of incident and cover up seems unlikely but if there were only 2 or 3 left then something untoward becomes more likely.

"It's hard every day. I think as soon as it starts getting dark and it gets colder, it's hard knowing that your child's still out there, and they still need you and you feel like you can't do anything," Shtuka's mother, Heather, told CBC News.
"You feel helpless."
