Relentless in Rescue | Ground Unit • Rope Access • Wilderness Response

Ground Search and Rescue

Every Second Counts. Every Life Matters.
SAR OPS specializes in coordinated ground search operations for missing persons in both urban and rural environments. Whether it’s a lost hiker, an elderly person with dementia, or a child who has wandered off, our ground units respond swiftly and strategically.

Technical Rope Rescue

Vertical Rescue. Precision-Driven. Life-Saving.
When traditional methods won’t work — due to cliffs, ravines, bridges, or other vertical environments — our Rope Rescue Team steps in. SAR OPS is equipped and certified in technical rope access, allowing us to safely access, stabilize, and recover individuals in extreme conditions.

Wilderness Search and Rescue

Rugged Terrain. Remote Locations. Relentless Determination.
Wilderness SAR is where our commitment is tested most. SAR OPS teams are trained in advanced survival, tracking, and terrain navigation to locate and recover individuals lost in forests, deserts, mountains, and other challenging environments.

Training & Certification

Preparedness Saves Lives — Train With Us
SAR OPS operates with the firm belief that continuous training is the foundation of effective rescue. We offer internal and community-based training that meets or exceeds national standards.

Volunteer Operations

We’re Powered by People Like You
At the heart of SAR OPS is a growing corps of highly trained, deeply motivated volunteers who are ready to serve at a moment’s notice. Our volunteers handle everything from active rescue operations to base coordination, logistics, and community outreach.

Community & Agency Support

Building a Safer Region Together
Beyond direct rescues, SAR OPS partners with communities, schools, and agencies to strengthen emergency preparedness. We host events and simulations to raise awareness and readiness across the region.
