Biking to Save Lives

Snohomish County Volunteer Search and Rescue
Mountain Bike Team

The goal of a Mountain Bike team is as a hasty or confinement team for a lost subject or for reaching injured subject(s) faster. Mountain bikes can travel where cars and trucks do not have access, therefore, we can transfer gear up trails faster. They are also faster on trails and roads than a person traveling on foot. Mountain bikes are very quiet; therefore, they allow the riders to listen for sounds from the lost subject. These abilities make a mountain bike a valuable tool for wilderness and urban Search and Rescue operations.

If interested in helping, please contact us at mbt@scvsar.org or by visiting the SCVSAR website.
Please email us for the next bike team meeting.
