Who was Trina Hunt and what was her life like before she disappeared?
Trina Hunt was 48 years old living in the Heritage Mountain neighborhood of Port Moody, British Columbia and Canada when she went missing on January 18, 2021. She was described by family as being an amazing woman who was incredibly down to earth and had a heart of gold. She was known to have a bubbly, bright, welcoming, caring, compassionate, generous, and loyal personality. She had worked at Shaw Communications, which is a telecommunications company that provides telephone, internet, TV, and mobile services. But she was actually able to take an early retirement, which is pretty cool at the age of forty-eight. However, even though she left her work, she was still so loved by her co-workers, so they made sure to stay in contact with her even after she left her job.
Trina was married to a man named Ian Hunt, who worked as a CEO at Clean Tech Service Group from Richmond, British Columbia. So I don't know too much more about Trina, unfortunately, but what I can tell is that she is so, so very loved by her friends, her family, and her community. So on Saturday, January 16th of 2021, Trina's husband Ian reported that the two of them drove down to Hope, British Columbia for the day. To visit a campground that they used to go to when they were younger in their 20s. The two of them were known for going on long drives and visiting different places, such as a dairy farm. But right off the bat, the strange thing about this was that January 16th was absolutely freezing, as you can imagine, in Canada.
It was a high of seven degrees Celsius and a low of one to two degrees Celsius. This was just over an hour and a half drive, and they took Ayan's gray BMW rear-wheel drive to this campsite. But the weird thing about this was that they normally used Trina's much larger all-wheel drive Mercedes SUV to go on these road trips. Ayan said that the two only visited the campsite for about a day before returning home sometime that evening. He said that he didn't know exactly when they got home, but they did get in home in time to watch a movie that night. When Ayan is asked about what the two did that Saturday, his answers have always been really vague and he hasn't really given out much information about what they did, including to Trina's family.
So to this day, no one really knows exactly what they did on that day. So now going back just a bit in the timeline, on January 14th, Trina was seen on CCTV footage in the retail community. Then on January 15th, she had been texting back and forth with a friend who lived in Ottawa, Canada. In this conversation, the two were discussing setting up some sort of a virtual cocktail date together.

Maybe it's Maybelline. That was the last time that it had been confirmed that anybody had actually heard from Trina. So now jumping back forward in the timeline back to January 16th, the day that the two apparently went to this campsite. A coworker had texted Trina two times without getting a response that day. But then on Sunday, January 17th, just before 5 p.m., Trina's phone responded to her former coworker saying delayed response because I'm trying a digital detox this weekend. Haven't touched the phone all weekend. And then Ian backed this up saying that they were both doing a digital detox on the weekend that they went to this campsite. Ian further explained. Explained to the family that they basically just needed a break from COVID and Trump on the news, so they both decided to just take a weekend away from their phones.
So this definitely seems reasonable, but the things that happened after this make this a little bit strange that they decided to take this digital detox on this specific weekend.
