A search is underway for a kayaker reported missing in the Kitwanga area.

According to the Kitwanga and Area Facebook group, 21-year-old Aiden Waddle went missing on Sunday (Nov. 10). Social media posts say his truck and kayak have been found.

New Hazelton RCMP confirmed they received a report of a missing person on November 10.

Cpl Madonna Saunderson said it was reported that an adult man had gone kayaking alone on Kitwancool Lake and had not returned.

She said RCMP, local search and rescue groups and volunteers have been searching for the missing man since Monday morning.

His cousin Danielle Glover is out helping with the search and said so far they have come up empty-handed.

"We just went in the other side of the lake and went all the way down still no word yet," she said.  "We have multiple crews trekking through the bush from shore to the old road in behind looking for any sign of him."
