RCMP divers and Nelson Search and Rescue continue their hunt in the waters near Grey Creek for the body of a 25 year old Riondel man.
He is presumed to have drowned Monday while diving into Kootenay Lake at the popular Starbelly Cliff.
A friend saw him hit the water awkwardly and tried to pull him to safety but he was unconscious and went under.
The depth of the water is around 170-feet.
The man is a long-time resident and has been described as an experienced cliff diver.
