The body of a missing snowmobiler has been found near the shoreline of a northern Saskatchewan lake.

Police said the lake was getting weak around the shoreline and it was feared the snowmobiler had not made it safely to shore.
A set of tracks was located going onto the ice, but not coming off the lake. A search was not started at the time due to darkness.
Conservation officers from Big River were called in the next day to help with the search.
A drone was flown over the lake and the body of the missing snowmobiler was found in the water near the shoreline.
The name of the snowmobiler has not been released by police.
Dore Lake is roughly 340 kilometres north of Saskatoon.
