23-year-old Jenae Elisabeth Larson went missing after a catastrophic landslide struck Haines, Alaska, on December 2, 2020. She was living in an apartment above the garage of David Simmons on Beach Road when a record-breaking storm triggered a massive debris flow roughly 600 feet wide that destroyed four homes. Jenae and Simmons were both reported missing after the slide.

A large-scale search involving Alaska State Troopers, the Alaska National Guard, the U.S. Coast Guard and volunteers combed the area by air and along the beaches. The debris field was estimated to be up to nine feet deep in mud and trees, and continued rainfall and unstable ground made the slide zone too hazardous for a sustained ground search. After days with no sign of the two missing residents, the official search was suspended.

Jenae had recently graduated from the University of Idaho and returned to Haines to teach kindergarten at the school she once attended; she was remembered as a kind, dedicated teacher at the start of her career. Does anyone in the Haines area have memories of Jenae or information about her last known movements?
