A police helicopter was called to help find a family stuck in snow.

The coastguard helicopter was deployed to assist with the search for a driver and a baby who were lost in the bad weather in Cwm Penmachno, near Betws-y-Coed.

North Wales Police requested help from Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue.

18 members of the team searched locations matching the drivers' description.

The vehicle could not initially be located by GPS.

The search area was expanded after several unsuccessful attempts to find the family.

Eventually, a GPS location was obtained, and the family was found safe and well.

The whole operation, on Friday, November 22, lasted more than three hours.
