The body of a missing Easterville man has been found.

27-year-old Walter Thomas went missing Monday night, after leaving a remote cabin on Thompson Island on Lake Winnipegosis.

Yesterday afternoon (Wed), search and rescue located a damaged snowmobile north of the Sapotaweyak Cree Nation, that was determined to be the one Thomas left on.

A short time later, Thomas’s body was located, and it is believed that he died from exposure.
