LARIMER COUNTY, Colo. — A man who disappeared while kayaking on Lon Hagler Reservoir on Tuesday was found dead Wednesday.

The man's family said he appeared to be on the reservoir late Tuesday afternoon. The body of a kayaker, identified as an 24-year-old Fort Collins man, was recovered Wednesday evening.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife said the kayaker was not wearing a life jacket. The Larimer County Coroner's Office will release his identity at a later time.

The north parking lot, which was closed for first responders and emergency vehicles, has since reopened.
