Grand Teton Russian student - A 20-year-old hiker who went missing for almost a week was found dead in a park Friday.

Aleksandr "Sasha" Sagiev, the missing person in the Grand Teton Russian student case, went hiking in the Grand Teton National Park on Monday, but he never returned again.

Four days later, the body of the student from Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, was found in the park, below a lofty traverse called the Cache Couloir, in Glacier Gulch. His remains was reportedly discovered at an elevation of approximately 9,400 feet, and was retrieved via helicopter long-line.

According to the National Park Service, the body of the Grand Teton Russian student has been taken to neighboring Jackson, Wyoming.

Sagiev, the Grand Teton Russian student, was said to be a seasonal worker at Dornan's Pizza & Pasta Restaurant, a diner located near the park. He was last spotted using his cellphone at the restaurant bar, and when he didn't report for his next shift, the alarm was raised, said park spokeswoman Jackie Skaggs.

"It's concerning because he's a very responsible person," Skaggs told Daily Mail.

Around 60 searchers had been looking for him since he was last spotted on Sunday while at work. The pursuit was challenged by heavy rain and thick clouds near Taggart Lake Trailhead, where officials believed the Grand Teton Russian student began his trek.

Since his arrival in June, the Grand Teton Russian student had spent a great deal of time walking and hiking in the park.

Sagiev was found wearing the metallic blue "Sochi" jacket that he was last seen sporting, the NY Daily News has learned. The item played an important role in locating his body in the rocky landscape, reported the park service.

Two things reportedly remain unclear as of the moment, one, the Grand Teton Russian student's cause of death - an investigation is set - and two, where in Russia is Sagiev really from - his Facebook profile states that he is studying at the Higher School of Economics that has its main campus in Moscow.
