Guiding Managers
Dave Pehowich
General Manager
Dave began working at STHS in 1996 after completing his studies in the Thompson Rivers University Adventure Tourism Program. While he was undergoing his ACMG guide training, he was able to work in a few departments at STHS and learn the inner workings of a heli ski company. Dave quickly became one of our integral lead guides, making plans for where to ski in our 500,000 acres of terrain. Over the years, Dave’s leadership and knowledge flourished, which allowed him to progress in his career as our Operations Manager. In March 2022, Dave was appointed General Manager for STHS, following in the footsteps of his mentor, Eriks Suchovs. Fortunately, Dave won’t be spending all of his time behind a desk. You will often see him out in the field guiding guests amongst our incredible terrain.
Dave. P (as we like to call him around here), when not at the office, can be found enjoying some family time, coaching hockey, or fly fishing.
“STHS might have the best terrain around Revelstoke, but most importantly, we have the best team to work with and I look forward every day to sharing moments with all of them. STHS wouldn’t be the same without our diverse team. To our guests, I wish you the best powder turns with us this season!”

Travelling the world
After 25 years guiding heliskiing around British Columbia including all the neighboring areas I finally joined the Selkirk Tangiers Team. I felt privileged to work and ski with such a talented group of professional guides. I spent 8 seasons exploring this amazingly ski tenure and have just had a taste! Just remember the snow is always a little deeper in Standfast Creek!

We also want to acknowledge the incredible work of our seasonal workers, in all services. These people are all awesome and STHS wouldn’t be this very special place to heli-ski and work with without them!
