Rescue teams have been drafted in to help search for the four teenagers, including a coastguard helicopter from Caernarfon which has since returned to base. Moutain rescue teams have also been deployed to search for the group around the Glaslyn Nature Reserve.

Chris Lloyd, chairman of the Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue Team, said: "We were called out by North Wales Police early yesterday afternoon. Our first job was to look for any indication they were on the mountain.

"We deployed two or three teams to drive around all the car parks. We cannot find the car. We are still actively looking for it and are continuing to search. We don't have a specific area where to search."
