The fourth person killed in an avalanche in the Scottish Highlands has been named by police.
Rachel Majumdar, 29, was a doctor working at Harrogate District Hospital in North Yorkshire.
She was originally from Merseyside and was most recently living in Leeds, Northern Constabulary said today.
The avalanche struck at about 2pm on Saturday as a group of six friends made their descent on Bidean Nam Bian in Glencoe.
PhD students Christopher Bell, 24, and Tom Chesters, 28, and 25-year-old junior doctor Una Finnegan were also swept to their deaths as they made their way down the mountain.
A 24-year-old woman from the Durham area, who was seriously hurt in the incident, remains in a critical condition in hospital in Glasgow.
Friends of the group said Mr Chesters and Dr Majumdar had been dating for several years and had “such a good future together”.
Sam Morris, 35, said the only consolation in the tragedy was that the couple died side-by-side doing something they both loved.
Mr Morris, a close friend of Mr Chesters and Mr Bell, worked with both men when they were mountain bike tour guides in the Alps.
He said Mr Chesters and Dr Majumdar met at university in Leeds and he came to know her through Mr Chesters.
“They were in love since they met in their first year of university,” he said.
“They were just so soft and sweet with each other - two people so at ease together. They were having fun making plans.
“They had dreams of doing voluntary work oversees together.
“Some of the comfort we have drawn is that these guys had been together to the end. At least they were doing what they liked doing.
Mr Morris said he met Dr Majumdar several times when she visited Mr Chesters in France.
He added: “All four of them were people with a bright future and all of them were committed to making a difference. It’s such a loss.”
