As a member of the Urban Search and Rescue team (USAR), California Task Force 3, Steve kept this journal during his deployment as a Search & Rescue volunteer to New Orleans, along with his search dog, a yellow lab named Daisy.
A technical rescue training in California's Tenaya Canyon turns into a real rescue when another hiker becomes stuck, immobile and scared on a wet slab.
SARstories is a resource for those interested in true stories by and about professional Search & Rescue personnel--both volunteer and paid--and those they help. While news stories are great, we're especially interested in firsthand accounts.
So if you have a Search & Rescue blog or website, or a personal story as the rescuer or rescued, e-mail us your link and we'll review your content for inclusion here on SARstories. Do you have a tale to tell and photos to share but no site of your own? We'll be happy to create a page for you on ours.
SARstories will be adding and updating content often--links, articles, photos, videos and other useful information--so check back often. Or subscribe to our blog, SARstories News, to receive updates.
