Search is an Emergency
Search is an Emergency, the lost person can move significant distances causing the Search area to grow every hour. Getting TRAINED SAR personnel on scene and in the field can reduce your Search area by using search tactics combined with Search Management and lost/missing person profiling. Search is no place for Ego and turf battles, your ability to plan and manage an effective search can saves lives.

FRS vs GMRS..
Winter is around the corner and outdoor activities are on the rise. Whether you are camping with your buddies or taking your family out to an amusement park, a set of 2-way radios can be handy to keep everyone in touch.
FRS and GMRS radios can also be essential to have on hand in case of emergency, we really like the Motorola MT350R. Its robust, as a 35 mi. range, receives NOAA weather radio, and has a built in LED flashlight. See more here: http://tinyurl.com/kxs9txs

Rescue skills must be practiced..
There is no substitute for training and practice. This video shows a practice rescue at height with basic equipment, The use of basic skills is many times forgotten with the possession of other tools which may or may not be needed for the unfolding incident.
The use of “other” equipment has its place; but with a solid knowledge of basic and direct rescue skills the rescuer can complete the rescue without major changes in a rescue system.
Create a plan, execute the plan, re evaluate as you proceed with the rescue, any changes can be made during the evolution without changing the pace of the rescue evolution.
