Search on after backpack found

A search is under way after a backpack containing clothes and a sleeping bag was found in a river in the Nelson Lakes area last night.

Tasman Search and Rescue have started the search in the Mt Angelus area of the Nelson Lakes National Park.

Police said the river where the backpack was found ran parallel to a track linking the Speargrass and Mt Angeles huts.

Police said anyone who recently lost a backpack in the area, or may have any other information that could identify the backpack's owner, should contact Nelson police.
