Lost Brit Is Found Dead On Peak Top

A British climber missing for five days in mountains in Spain has been found dead, it emerged yesterday.

Popular Barrie Cadd, 24, who was on a dream trip supporting a party from a disability adventure trust, vanished attempting to reach an 8,500ft peak alone.

He was last seen a week ago by friends who turned back before the summit of Pena Vieja, in the Picos de Europa national park.

Barrie, from Bideford, Devon, was meant to rejoin them later the same day but never did.

A search was launched but his body was not found until Monday, jammed among boulders.

Barrie, also a keen kayaker, was an activity instructor with the Calvert Trust for disabled people in Barnstaple.
