What happens when you’re somewhere off the pavement and call 911? That call ends up with Search and Rescue. Our highly skilled team of 60 volunteers, organized under Utah County Sheriff’s Department Emergency Services division, gives their time and energy to answer those calls.
First year members on Utah County SAR train for a full year, as probationary members, to learn the baseline skills necessary to assist in rescues. These trainings include knots, rope systems, medical, flat water and swift water rescue, tracking, single track and side-by-side, towing trailers, and more.
