On May 30, 2026, members of Tonto Rim Search & Rescue participated in the 24th Annual Swiftwater Rescue Rodeo at Saguaro Lake Ranch, joining swiftwater rescue teams from across Arizona for a day of competition and skill development.

The Swiftwater Rescue Rodeo provides rescue professionals with realistic, hands-on scenarios designed to test decision-making, teamwork, and technical rescue capabilities in dynamic water environments. This year's competition featured five events: rope bag accuracy, a rescue scenario, high-line setup, swim-and-knots, and a kayak relay.

TRSAR members performed well, earning 3rd Place overall against some of Arizona's top swiftwater rescue teams.

Congratulations to our team for their hard work, dedication, and commitment to maintaining the skills needed to serve our communities safely and effectively.

Tonto Rim Search & Rescue was dispatched to the Water Wheel area to assist an injured subject located across the creek.

TRSAR volunteers responded, assessed the situation, and safely packaged the patient for transport. The team then conducted a litter carry to transfer the subject to awaiting medical personnel. Due to the nature of the injuries, the patient was airlifted for further medical care.

We wish the subject a full and speedy recovery.

Thank you to all responding personnel and partner agencies whose teamwork helped ensure a successful outcome.
