Hillwalker search ‘depends on weather’

-

Weather conditions will determine when rescuers resume their search for a hillwalker who has been missing since Thursday.

Officers at Police Scotland and rescuers say an “accumulati­on of snow” has forced search teams to call off their search for Neil Gibson, 63, after the body of his brother Alan, 56, was found on Saturday.

The pair failed to return after heading out for a walk in Strathcarr­on, Wester Ross, on Thursday.
