Emily Rea
The Flathead County Sheriff’s Office continues searching for Emily Rea (33), who has been missing since July 16. Emily traveled alone to the Hungry Horse Reservoir in West Glacier, Montana, where she planned to go paddle boarding.
After arriving in the area, she was not seen again, and no confirmed updates have surfaced since that day.
Search efforts around the reservoir and surrounding terrain have been extensive, but investigators have not uncovered any clear indication of what happened after Emily reached the water.
The remote nature of the area, combined with limited witness information, has made the investigation especially challenging. Friends, family, and local authorities remain deeply concerned as time passes without new leads.
Emily’s disappearance has weighed heavily on the community, and law enforcement continues urging the public to come forward with any information that might help. Even small details — a sighting, a conversation someone remembers, or something unusual noticed near the reservoir — could help investigators understand what happened on July 16.
