That’s a wrap! With the exception of Mr. Ray who is STILL training to become a Wilderness First Aid Instructor, our time at the 13th Annual ARSAR Conference on Degray Lake in Amity, AR has come to a close. Stay tuned for a photo dump of more training and fun. We would like to thank the ARSAR folks for their dedication to making the conference educational, fun, and welcoming. Thank you to the instructors who traveled from all over the US to give us their best, including our very own Ms. Elle and her K9, Chief.

On Friday, March 13th, HCSAR conducted a night search training in a local state park for a missing hiker. Three teams divided up and searched the last known location of the hiker and the areas of focus. The hiker was located by “Team Red”, but all 3 teams and a 4 member RIT team converged to package and transport the injured hiker back to incident command where six more team members awaited (accountability, communication, tracking, and command). It takes a village. Great job, team!!

HCSAR is honored to be a part of these search efforts.
