Keeping tourists safe all year.

With millions of adventure-seeking visitors every year, the Moab area has the highest incidence of search and rescue calls in the state of Utah. Here are tips from the experts on how “not” to get rescued.

In Moab’s vast landscape – which includes Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, Dead Horse Point, the Colorado River, Hells Revenge and the Slickrock Bike Trail just to name a few – dedicated teams of professionals work together to rescue injured, dehydrated and lost visitors using an amazing array of specialty equipment, including off-road vehicles, rolling litters, bicycles, UTVs, boats and helicopters.

Over 30 people from multiple agencies participated in the 48 hour filming, which took place on what turned out to be two of the busiest call days of the year for the search and rescue teams. The filming involved staff and volunteers from several agencies and community residents, including Grand County Search and Rescue, Grand County EMS, Grand County Sheriff’s Office, Classic Air Medical, the National Park Service, Bureau of Land Managment and the Swiftwater Safety Institute.
