Nelson House RCMP say a man is dead following a fatal snowmobile collision this week.
Officers were informed Monday the 27-year-old man had left Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation and was believed to be heading towards a camp north of the community, and was later found dead along the trail to the camp.
Police arrived at the scene and determined the snowmobiler was traveling along the shoreline of Footprint Lake at a high speed when he collided with a tree.
The snowmobiler was wearing a helmet.
