Search for missing hunter back on after campsite found

Christian Tommarck was meant to return on Wednesday (supplied)

Searchers will Sunday morning head out to a West Coast camp site, they believe could belong to a missing hunter.

Swedish national Christian Tommarck, 27, went out on a solo hunt in the Karangarua area more than a week ago.

A positive sighting of Mr Tommarck helped direct the search yesterday.

A helicopter located the campsite, but the search was called off due to bad weather.

Mr Tommarck's family in Sweden have been told he is missing and are being kept informed.
