With headlamps, crampons, climbing rope and first aid kits on hand, the brave volunteers of North Shore Search and Rescue have become regular fixtures on our local mountains. These local heroes routinely put their lives at risk to provide help to those injured, lost and sometimes misguided hikers, skiers, and mountain bikers who encounter difficulties while playing in the hills. Saving lives for over 50 years, our incredible group of rescuers is one of the oldest search and rescue teams in the country.
