A man wearing a black tuque and orange parka and black sunglasses looks towards the camera. It's snowy outside. There are dogs in the background.

RCMP spokesperson Sgt. Paul Manaigre said he hopes the discovery can bring some closure to the family. It also marks the end of one of the most difficult search and rescue missions ever conducted in Manitoba, Manaigre said, where there was a good chance the man’s body would never be found.
