The B.C. Rescue Association confirmed this morning, June 19, that Salin had been found dead.
"It is with a very heavy heart that we confirm the passing of Whistler SAR member, Toby Salin. Toby will be remembered for his strong commitment to SAR, his incredible work ethic and dry sense of humour. He will be missed by many," according to a post by the association.
"Toby came home to rest in the arms of those who he chose as friends and colleagues."
