Police have called off the search for a snowmobiler in Whiteshell Provincial Park, who they now believe fell through the ice.
A search and rescue team combed through hundreds of kilometres in southeastern Manitoba provincial park looking for Dan LeMay, 50, who had been missing without food or water since Sunday night.
Family has told CBC the missing man is Dan LeMay from Grunthal, Man. It s believed LeMay ran out of gas somewhere on the trail between Pinewood Lodge on Dorothy Lake and the town of Rennie, Man., a stretch of nearly 40 kilometres.
Rennie is about 114 kilometres east of Winnipeg.
Members of LeMay s family are in the Whiteshell, a 2,700-square-kilometre provincial part about 120 kilometres east of Winnipeg along the Ontario border, searching for the father of three. Many volunteers were also out combing the area Monday.
