The search for Damien Roadley, who went missing in bushland in northern NSW 10 days ago, has come to an end as emergency services have found his body.

The 38-year-old had not been seen since he reported an out-of-control campfire with his mobile phone on August 1 from Blue Knob Mountain near Nimbin.

Family members reported Mr Roadley missing when he failed to return home on August 2.
