Mountain rescuers say they have found the body of a climber reported missing following an avalanche.

His climbing partner was injured but she managed to walk to the Nevis Range snowsports centre to raise the alarm.

The team said other rescue teams and coastguard helicopter crews had helped in the searches made for the climber following his disappearance.
