The body of a hillwalker who was missing in Lochaber has been found following searches of the Knoydart area, police have confirmed.
The family of Ian Stalker, 65, from Edinburgh has been informed.
He was reported overdue on Wednesday from a walk in the area the previous day.
Mr Stalker failed to return home from his trek in the Sgurr a Choire-bheithe area of Knoydart and a major search was launched.
The body was recovered during searches by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency Helicopter Rescue 951 and personnel from Lochaber Mountain Rescue Team.
Sergeant Keith Almond said: “Our thoughts are with the man’s family and friends at this time.
“There are no suspicious circumstances and a report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.”
John Stevenson, leader of Lochaber Mountain Rescue Team, said the casualty was spotted by the helicopter south of Barrisdale Bay in Loch Houron.
Mr Stevenson said: “It’s a huge area, we weren’t sure exactly where he was. It was literally 10s of square miles to search, it was a good spot by the helicopter.
“Some of our team went and assisted with the recovery of the casualty.
“We are not sure what happened yet, we will have to wait for the results of the post mortem.”
