Unforgiving Environment
As beautiful as the wilderness environs of Moab are, they can be very unforgiving. The desert's mix of hot temperatures, rugged terrain and extraordinary remoteness, coupled with a dangerous mix of underestimating supplies and overestimating abilities, has created some unfortunate circumstances for a number of visitors. And sometimes, even after taking diligent precautions, the desert just has its way with the most prepared of adventurers.
And That's Where We Come In
The Grand County Search and Rescue team has evolved over the years from an informal jeep posse under the wing of an authentic western sheriff to a well-trained crew of volunteers known for their compassion and professionalism. Within the ranks of the core Grand County Search and Rescue team, specialized units have been formed to tackle the diverse rescue challenges presented by the rugged canyon country surrounding Moab. The extensive schedule of general training, along with additional training for the specialized units, ensures that the members of GCSAR are ready to do their best job during what may be your worst times.
