Well-known British Columbia professional freeskier Dave Treadway has died in a backcountry accident north of Whistler.
Pemberton Search and Rescue confirms its members responded Monday after learning a 34-year-old had fallen 30 metres into a crevasse.
Colorado-based Ski Journal Magazine editor Mike Rogge says Treadway, who was sponsored by companies including Rossignol and GoPro, had the ability to "find air," on the flattest of runs, but was also known for his emphasis on safety, his love of family and his firm belief in God.
