SAR Response Teams

Explore the various SAR disciplines to learn about the specialized teams that work together to support search and rescue operations.

Mobile Units

Mobile Units play a critical role in search operations by allowing the Search and Rescue team to rapidly cover large, accessible areas using Off Highway Vehicles such as quads and side-by-sides. These vehicles enable responders to quickly reach locations that would take much longer on foot, speeding up the search process and improving the chances of a successful outcome. Mobile Units are also essential for safely extracting lost or injured individuals, providing a fast and efficient means of transport out of the field and into the care they need.

Ground Teams

Ground Teams play a vital role in Search and Rescue operations, conducting thorough searches on foot, tracking clues, providing essential first aid, and assisting with medevac when needed. Their strong navigation skills and ability to operate in challenging terrain make them an indispensable part of locating, stabilizing, and safely bringing subjects home.

Overhead Team

Logistics and Planning teams are essential to the success of any Search and Rescue operation, ensuring that every mission is organized, efficient, and well-supported. They coordinate resources, develop search strategies, track team deployment, and maintain vital communication and documentation throughout the incident. By handling the critical planning and behind-the-scenes details, these teams allow field personnel to focus on the search itself. Their thorough preparation and coordination are key to keeping operations safe, effective, and adaptable as conditions evolve.
