The search for a mother-of-two in Western Australia’s Pilbara region has come to a tragic end.

The body of a female believed to be Felicity Shadbolt was located in the vicinity of Mount Nameless by a member of the public shortly after 7pm on Wednesday, police say.

The mother-of-two was last seen at about 11.30am on Sunday morning when she told friends and family she was going to go for a run at Mount Nameless, about 10km from Tom Price.

More than 50 people had been out looking for the 36-year-old after her parked car was found at the entrance of a trail leading into Mount Nameless on Sunday reports 7 news.

Fears for her well-being had continued to grow with temperatures in the area exceeding 40C at times.

Heartbreaking development.

Such a terrible tragedy. Our thoughts are with the family.
