Description: On a cold February night in 2018, 20-year-old Ryan Shtuka left a house party in Sun Peaks, British Columbia, and was never seen again. What should have been a 10 to 15 minute walk home turned into a haunting mystery that still echoes through the local community. Ryan was a bright, adventurous young man working at the Sun Peaks ski resort. He loved snowboarding, had a close group of friends, and was living his best life in the mountains. But on February 17, 2018, he vanished without a trace. Despite extensive searches involving hundreds of volunteers, search and rescue teams, and even specialized cadaver dogs, no sign of Ryan has ever been found. His family has never stopped searching, creating the "Shtukasaurus" nd keeping his story alive. This episode follows the emotional journey of Ryan's family, their relentless search, and the global movement that grew from one young man's disappearance. Ryan's mother describes being caught between grief and hope—unable to fully grieve because he's missing, but unable to give up hope that he'll be found. New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday!
