WHISTLER, B.C. — A woman has died after being found unresponsive on a mountain at a British Columbia ski resort.

Police say a person riding the gondola at Whistler Blackcomb spotted the woman on Blackcomb Mountain, and patrollers contacted police at about 10 a.m. on Thursday after locating her.

A release from Sea to Sky RCMP says the woman was given life-saving measures at the scene and taken to the mountain’s base, where an ambulance took her to a health-care clinic.

She was pronounced dead upon arrival at the clinic.
