A body has been found in the search for a skier missing overnight in the Cairngorms.

Sam Burns, 40, was last in contact with friends at about 11.30am on Friday. He has since failed to return to his van, which was parked in the Cairngorm mountain car park.

It is thought he planned to ski Y gully or diagonal gully from the Cairngorm plateau.

Police said the body of a man was found in the Cairngorms at about 11am on Saturday. Formal identification is yet to take place, but the family of Burns has been informed.

Police said there did not appear to be any suspicious circumstances, and a report would be submitted to the procurator fiscal.
