TikTok - Make Your Day was her tiktok, namechanged to TikTok - Make Your Day

not sure if the name change is anything.

there's a sketchyish link to a google doc form for volunteers, clicked in. Looks interesting.

NOV 22, 2024 Sheriff's Update
  • NOV 21 - Just after midnight a hunter located her vehicle in the Loomis area covered with snow. The road wasn't plowed and 2ft of snow prevented LE from accessing the vehicle. At daylight, volunteers with SAR made their way to the vehicle. OCSO deployed the SNOW CAT to plow about 12 miles of road for access to SAR and detectives.
  • NOV 22 - at 0700 hours with the deepest snow removed by the CAT and new accumulation the County Road Department assisted with plowing the road again. The vehicle was removed from the scene. The vehicle contained items indicating that Sofia was at some point in the vehicle. A K9 team arrived and was deployed. The search was called off at nightfall, to resume NOV 23.

Maybe she decided to have someone follow behind her in another car and then flee to Canada or Mexico for starters. The man who volunteered his k-9 and gathered about 100 other volunteers to search, has now been completely silent. I hope this is the case. She just wanted to disappear.

Very worrying. I hope she is located before it is too late.

This was an update from Source One news. Read carefully..
12/4 UPDATE: The Okanogan County Sheriff's Office has discontinued the search-and-rescue (SAR) mission for Sofia Amaro, a young woman from Oroville, citing adverse weather conditions. Despite efforts, including the use of a SAR K9, no tracks or indications of her direction of travel were found.

Family and friends continue searching as weather and area access allow. Authorities have reported no new information regarding Amaro's whereabouts. The community remains hopeful as they await updates.
OROVILLE - The Okanogan County Sheriff's Office has joined the search for Sofia Amaro of Oroville. Sofia's brother, Simon, went public about his sister's disappearance Wednesday morning, Nov. 20; she's been missing since Nov. 19. Simon stated that Sofia had left behind a note indicating that she wanted to go missing. According to friends and family, Sofia's white Toyota Prius was reportedly found in the Loomis area on Thursday, but she remains missing. The Okanogan County Sheriff's Office is reportedly utilizing its resources to find Sofia. Sofia is described as being 5'7" with a brown complexion and is in her early 20's. We'll have more information soon.

if true, there is little to be done. She is an adult and indicates she doesn't want to be found. Is this the same note where she was said to have expressed she might self harm? Saying I don't want to be found/want to be missing isn't the same as I want to hurt myself IMO. Has this note been published?

such a strange scenario here...
She is so beautiful, family seems quite loving, ??peaceful living in Northern NH.
What is wrong here?
And why no information for so long?

Soon it's 4 months. No updates from family nor LE, I assume?

I wonder what's in Loomis - it looks like there's a park, but no trailheads. Loomis is so small it has a Tonasket postal address. There is a lake and very similar nature/wilderness much closer to Oroville but still rural - Loomis is 30 min away, and there are other turnoffs to tiny towns/parks/recreation areas along the way. Choosing Loomis feels intentional?
