Dave Treadway, a well-known skier, has died after falling down a crevasse near Rhododendron Mountain in the Pemberton backcountry. A written statement on his website confirmed Treadway's death, and described him as "an incredible skier and a monumental human." "A second team from Whistler SAR was dispatched to provide assistance to the Pemberton team." Treadway was a well-known skier in the Pemberton area. I’m saddened to learn of the passing of professional skier Dave Treadway.
