RCMP has recovered the body of a man who died while rafting on a Saskatchewan river last weekend.

The missing boater was located today by the RCMP's dive team near the community of Candle Lake, said RCMP.

The 31 year old was rafting with friends on Torch River Sunday when he entered the water and never resurfaced.

It’s presumed the man drowned, but the Provincial Coroner is still investigating the official cause of death.
