😀Today is

On this weekend in 1948, mountain rescue pioneers from different countries gathered at Wilder Kaiser mountain range at the invitation of the Austrian Alpine Club. The people present exchanged knowledge, shared experiences, and laid the foundation for what would soon become ICAR – the International Commission for Alpine Rescue – officially founded in 1955.

Today ICAR has grown to a network of over 140 member organisations in 41 countries around the world. This impressive global network reflects the strong spirit of networking, cooperation and shared commitment to saving lives in the mountains.

We are proud to be one of the 141 member organisations and to represent the 11 Mountain Rescue Teams across Ireland, including Search and Rescue Dog Association (Ireland).

🥾 Today, we honour the spirit of collaboration and dedication of volunteer Mountain Rescue Team Members across the world who often risk their lives to keep others safe in the mountains. 🏔️❤️

🌞Kerry Mountain Rescue Team has some useful advice for walkers during this current spell of warm weather to help ensure you stay safe.

⛰️It is also important to be responsible when out walking to help prevent wildfires from starting.

The Team has also been busy with call outs to assist those in difficulty.
