Angel Edna Carlick was an 18-year-old Kaska Dena First Nation woman building a new life in Whitehorse in spring 2007. Employed at the Blue Feather Youth Centre, she ran a dinner program, was about to graduate high school, and hoped to create a stable home for her younger brother. On the evening of May 26, 2007, after a graduation barbecue she rode her bicycle downtown, made a payphone call to a friend, and was last seen walking away from Main Street accompanied by one or several unidentified people.

When Angel missed work the next day, colleagues reported her missing. Her remains were found in a shallow grave by a hiker on November 9, 2007, in a wooded area near the Pilot Mountain subdivision about twelve miles north of Whitehorse. Her death was ruled a homicide, but decomposition prevented determination of the exact cause of death. The RCMP conducted an extensive investigation, including more than 100 interviews, and later created a Historical Case Unit; no suspects have been publicly named and no arrests have been announced.

Angel’s last confirmed sighting with two unknown males remains a key unresolved lead. Anyone who knew Angel or has information about her movements that night is asked to come forward.
