Colorado authorities have identified the body of a female paddle boarder reported to be in distress and missing at a state park Sunday afternoon.

Authorities identified the woman as Mireille Audet, 30, of Denver, Colorado, the Denver Post reported Monday. 

Audet's body was recovered, using sonar equipment, from the Chatfield Reservoir at Colorado's Chatfield State Park at 7.16pm Sunday, by Colorado Parks and Wildlife's Marine Evidence Recovery Team.

Authorities said the body of Mireille Audet, 30, was recovered from Colorado's Chatfield Reservoir after she and a friend were blown off their paddleboards in high winds Sunday

Authorities are seen during their search for Audet, who went missing at about 3.30pm Sunday

Authorities then used sonar equipment to find Audet's body, which was recovered at 7.16pm

Authorities said Audet and a friend - a woman who was not named - had been out paddleboating when they were blown off their watercraft and into the water at about 3.30pm that day.  

A park spokesperson said that at the time, winds were sustained at about 25mph and gusting to 45mph. The water temperature was about 54 degrees at the time. 

The woman who survived the incident was able to drift back to shore and get pulled to safety. 

Witness said that Audet dropped below the choppy water's surface and wasn't seen again, according to the Denver Channel.

Two other boats capsized at the lake on Sunday afternoon. Two people from the boats had to be treated for hypothermia, the park spokesperson said.
