THE "DEATHTRAP" ravine where Jay Slater's body was found has been revealed in dramatic drone footage.
The clip of the treacherous landscape shows terrifying ridges and rocky cliff-edges, with a near-vertical drop of up to a deadly 300ft each side.
Searchers discovered Jay's remains on Monday - four weeks after he disappeared while on holiday with his pals for the NRG music festival.
Spanish cops still haven't revealed the exact location where the body was found.
But it's believed his body was pulled from the remote Baranco Juan Lopez valley, not far from where his phone signal last pinged.
Footage shows how high up the terrain really is as the clouds meet the cliff edges.
It's almost completely obscured by low cloud which could have blurred Jay's vision.
The landscape is considered to be near-impossible to access on foot unless you're an experienced climber with equipment - including rope.
Some gaps seen between the desolate landscape are only a few feet wide and sometimes hidden which could explain how the teen's body was missed in previous aerial searches.
The Brit is believed to have accidentally fallen to his death while attempting to trek back to his hotel through the dangerous ravine.
Speaking to ex-Madeleine McCann investigator Mark Williams-Thomas said: "The area where Jay’s body was found was highlighted yesterday afternoon with the search and rescue helicopter in the area.
"It is around 20 minutes walk from the pin drop location."
Mr Williams-Thomas previously revealed how rescue workers would have struggled to scour the ravine after cops labelled it "very inaccessible".
He claimed a single foot placed incorrectly or an unfortunate slip may have been fatal.
A local villager told : "The place is a deathtrap for people who don't know what they are doing.
"There are places where you can climb, but it is easy to slip on the uneven surface or lose your grip.
"If you are a teenager who is alone, and you are dehydrated, tired and confused about your whereabouts, then the chance of an awful accident are even higher."
The 19-year-old Brit vanished 29 days ago after going to a rave the night before with friends - sparking a huge effort to find the Lancashire teen.
As Jay attempted the 11-hour walk back to his own accommodation through the rough and rocky terrain, it is feared he accidentally fell.
The teen's devastated mum Debbie Duncan has asked to see her son one last time despite cops saying his body has deteriorated over time.
A family spokesman told The Sun: "Formal identification of Jay's body will be done using a DNA sample provided by the family to the Spanish Guardia Civil during the early stages of the search.
"There should be no need for the family to have to perform a formal identification.
"Debbie has said she wants to see him one last time.
"Obviously that's a personal voice but given he's been there the best part of a month in those conditions, I'm not sure that's a memory she will want."
Dramatic footage released from the Tenerife Guardia Civil on Monday showed rescue workers using a helicopter to reach an "inaccessible" ravine where Jay's body was found.
Footage shows the searchers hacking at bushes and climbing up the sides of the huge mountains as part of their hunt.
Jay vanished without a trace on June 17 while on holiday with friends Brad Hargreaves and Lucy Law.
He had gone in the early hours with two men to their Airbnb in the north of the Canary Island after leaving a music festival at a nightclub.
Police cancelled the search on June 30 after they launched a final official attempt to find Jay.
Police hunting for Slater were forced to search in secret as amateur sleuths risked disrupting the case.
Cops in Tenerife had so far remained tight-lipped about their investigation - sparking a barrage of online speculation.
Social media was rife with armchair detectives peddling vile conspiracy theories and hounding Jay’s devastated family.
Some amateur sleuths even took it upon themselves to fly to the island in a bid to crack the case themselves.
It fuelled cops to keep their work even more private as they refused to add to the “circus” caused by trolls and wannabe sleuths, police sources say.
The source told The Sun: “For many of the officers in Tenerife, they'd never dealt with a missing persons' case like this.
“There were so many armchair detectives offering theories, and people arriving on the Island who said they could solve the mystery.
“They had no interest in feeding that.”
