Decades of
Volunteer Public Service

The Emery County Search & Rescue Team is
comprised of some of the most talented and skilled individuals eastern Utah has to offer. We have numerous
professionals on our Team from; Law Enforcement, Public Safety, FIRE, & EMS. We have a Physicians Assistant,
Advanced Emergency Medical Technicians, Emergency Medical Responders, several EMT Instructors and First Aid
Instructors. We have the most experienced High Angle Rope Rescue Instructor around, and groups from all over the
country send their teams to Emery County to practice with and learn from some of the best in the
industry.
The Emery County Search & Rescue Team
is called out to find and rescue stranded or injured recreationers on the high desert of the San Rafael Swell, and
the rugged alpine mountains of the Wasatch Plateau.
Our teams are ready to go at a moments notice,
and once we are mobilized we often utilize a combination of multiple air ships from the Utah Department of Public
Safety and medical air support units from Eagle AirMed, Lifeflight, Airmed, and Careflight. We also use various
specialized ground units to locate, recover, and transport those we are called in to help.
The Emery County Search & Rescue is made up of regular
members who voluntarily donate their time, equipment, training, and services to help search for and rescue
folks who find themselves in desparate situations.
