Our members are proud to work alongside BCEHS, RCMP, and our neighbouring search and rescue teams to help those in need.

As you head outdoors this summer, remember that accidents can happen to anyone. Before you go:
✔️ Check trail, weather, and wildfire conditions.
✔️ Tell someone where you’re going and when you expect to return.
✔️ Carry the essentials, including extra clothing, food, water, and a way to communicate.
✔️ Know your limits and plan for changing conditions.

Your preparation can make all the difference for you and for those who may need to come to your aid. Stay safe and enjoy the outdoors!

Summer is off to a busy start for CVSAR, with four calls in just three days.

July 4: Members responded to a swift water incident as well as provided mutual aid to Kimberley Search & Rescue for an injured ATV rider.

July 5: A team responded to an injured horseback rider in the backcountry.

July 6: Search teams were mobilized after an overdue dirt biker was reported in the Brisco area. Thanks to the rider wearing bright clothing and signaling to the aircraft, they were successfully located from the air.

Thank you Glacier Helicopters Ltd. 🇨🇦 for the vital support throughout.

No matter how you choose to enjoy the outdoors, accidents can happen. Before you head out, leave a trip plan with someone you trust, carry the essentials, and be prepared for the unexpected.
