A search and rescue helicopter located his body about 20 kilometres downstream of Griffin Flat .
He became separated from a hunting party of four people on Sunday.
Buller councillor Dave Hawes says the young man who'd recently left Reefton will be missed, and the loss of any young person is emotional.
He says Coasters will be thinking of the family.
