My thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues. His deputy looked absolutely gutted on the news.

Why do we have to know someone to think that suicide is a shame?

Or, as we don't know how and why he was found, he may have died from exposure and while realising that he may not be found in time written some notes.
But I see the BBC article suggests suicide.

Rescue teams with hundreds of hours of climbing experience between them are now attempting to bring the body of Mr Todd down to ground level.

But the task is being hampered by poor weather conditions including severe gales with gusts of up to 85mph, hill fog and ice being forecast for the Snowdonia mountains.

Low cloud, poor visibility and freezing conditions are not helping efforts and it could take rescue teams as long as two and a half hours.

My thoughts to his family - and to the team that brought him down.
