The search for Michael MacGregor is continuing today.
Michael was last seen at the Rocky Lookout around 12:20pm on Monday.
Today Police are focusing on the Atiwhakatu Stream.
Police Search and Rescue, Land Search and Rescue volunteers and a specialist canyoning search and rescue team have been deployed.
Ground search teams will be searching near the Atiwhakatu Stream, and the canyoning team will be searching the water.
As there will be specialist teams in the water, Police ask that members of the public do not enter the stream. While they may have the best intentions, unauthorised people in the stream place both themselves and the specialists at risk.
Police extend our appeal for any information that may assist Police in locating Michael.
If you saw Michael, or have any information that may assist in locating him that you have not reported yet, please contact Police via 105 and reference event number: P055522968
