TCSAR Rescue Reports
Published on a biannual basis, Rescue Reports are intended to keep track of everything the TCSAR volunteers have accomplished over the previous six months. This includes call-outs, missions, trainings, and community events—a synopsis of their commitment to saving lives and creating a positive influence in Jackson Hole. The reports also detail projects, community outreach and education goals set forth by the TCSAR Foundation to support the volunteers and increase backcountry safety awareness.
Ultimately, the reports are designed to be informational as well as educational, sharing "lessons learned" to help others prepare for their adventures in the Jackson Hole backcountry. Rescue Reports are free, available in print or digital form. If you’d like a print copy for your business or home, please send a request to info@tetoncountysar.org.
The 2023 End-of-Year Review and Rescue Report is now available in digital form, with free print copies being mailed out at the end of December. More will be available to pick up at local businesses. The report caps one of the most significant years ever in TCSAR history, including:
Incident summaries from the six-month period between June. 1-Nov. 30, 2023. It also includes graphs that summarize backcountry incident trends for the last six months, as well as for the last 10 years.
Breakdown of incidents by Gender, Age, and Residence.
Photos and overview of TCSAR’s new H125 helicopter.
Recognition of the unique partnership between TCSAR, JHMR Ski Patrol, and GTNP Jenny Lake Rangers.
How people on the ground can use their handheld radios to communicate directly with rescue personnel.
Pick up a free copy at any number of participating businesses in Teton County, or please let us know if we can mail you one.
