The first sledder was found at about 7:30 p.m. but the search for the other two was called off for the night because of the high avalanche danger.
At about 8:00 a.m. Friday, the Revelstoke SAR team found the missing pair. Due to the avalanche conditions and health concerns, the two Alberta men were rescued by helicopter long-line.
Police say the three sledders are all fine.
RCMP are thanking the search volunteers for their diligent work.
