News has broke that pro skier Dave Treadway has died yesterday in the Pemberton/Whistler backcountry. It is being reported that Treadway died after falling over 100 feet into a crevasse. Pique News reports that Dave was backcountry skiing near Rhododendron Mountain at the time of the accident. 

Support for the Treadway Family

From gofundme.com page set up to support Dave’s Family:

On April 15, 2019 Dave Treadway was killed in a crevasse fall accident in the mountains of Pemberton, BC. Dave was a passionate individual who’s achievements in the mountains were only outweighed by his desire to show others the love of God. He did this by serving as a youth leader in his community and by leading as a professional skiing role model.

Dave’s immediate family, including his wife and his 3 children (ages 6, 2 and unborn) will inevitably face the realities of living without their bread winner. Dave and Tessa had very recently committed to buying a house in Golden BC.

Dave had a huge impact on many people and we encourage you to donate to a fund to support Dave’s wife and children in their future life.
