A California tourist has vanished in Costa Rica after severe flash flooding and mudslides struck the region during her hike, sparking a desperate search that has now been stalled by torrential rains.
Ashley Phillips, 30, has been missing since June 2. Now, 13 days into her disappearance, her family says they are living through their “worst nightmare” as hazardous conditions force search-and-rescue teams to stand down.
Costa Rican authorities have issued a nationwide green alert, warning that an intensifying rainy season and a developing Pacific low-pressure system threaten to trigger even more catastrophic landslides.
In an update on June 12, the family marked 10 days since Phillips’ disappearance, noting search efforts had become difficult because of the weather.
“Due to ongoing severe weather conditions in Costa Rica, the search efforts have been temporarily paused,” the family wrote in a GoFundMe. “However, the search is expected to resume once conditions improve and the drier season begins.”
