Colorado Search and Rescue Association - CSAR

The Colorado Search and Rescue Association (CSAR) brings organizations together to find, rescue and recover those in need in the Colorado backcountry.  Composed of volunteers from our member backcountry search and rescue teams, CSAR assists and empowers through public education in backcountry safety, advocacy, coordination, collaboration, and continuous skill development.  A key part of our mission is to educate backcountry recreationists, including both residents of and visitors to Colorado, to help reduce the call volume of backcountry search and rescue teams..
