Old Bill's 2025: TCSAR Always Answers The Call

TCSAR volunteers are on call 24/7/365. This means they often step away from their families and normal everyday activities in order to answer an emergency call from someone in need in the backcountry.

Since January 1, TCSAR has been called nearly 120 times, an all-time record. Though not every call has resulted in a full-team callout, anytime the phone rings, a volunteer is there to answer.

By donating to TCSAR this Old Bill's giving season, you are supporting trainings, physical and mental wellness, meals, and personal safety equipment that empower TCSAR volunteers to answer the call—and come home to their families.

Thank you for supporting our volunteers.

Watch: Times may have Changed, the Mission Remains the Same

Teton County Search & Rescue began in 1993 with an original class of 30 volunteers. In this video, we look back on an important moment that helped shape the strength and unity of the team, and how the original values of commitment and service became bedrock components that continue to this day.

Please help us maintain this proud legacy by donating to TCSAR Foundation during Old Bill's. Learn more about the team’s 30th anniversary and why the team today needs your help by clicking the button below.
