A climber has died after falling 50 metres (164ft) on the UK's highest mountain.
The man was climbing with a friend in the Raeburn's Buttress area of Ben Nevis when he fell around 12.30pm yesterday.
Two helicopters were scrambled to the scene with Lochaber Mountain Rescue Team but the man died during the rescue, Northern Constabulary said.
