HOPE SEARCH
AND RESCUE
WHO WE ARE
We are located in beautiful Hope, British Columbia, and are comprised of a group of committed people who are ready at a moment's notice. We are a 100% volunteer organization that participates in tasks from search and rescue, technical rescue, road rescue and vehicle extrication, to community events and fundraisers. Our area covers a large variety of different terrain from technical mountains and dense forests to fast moving rivers.
NO CHARGE FOR SAR
"The British Columbia Search and Rescue Association (BCSARA) believes that the perceived or actual belief that a lost or injured person or their loved ones will be charged for a search and rescue response could directly affect the decision as to if or when a call for professional help will be made. It is our position that any delay in the deployment of Search and Rescue (SAR) services can negatively impact the outcome of a SAR mission." - BCSARA
