Description
No one ever intends to get lost or injured in the woods, but occasionally it happens. Join members of King County Search and Rescue for this special engagement and interactive presentation. Hear real life rescue stories from rescue missions right here in the Cascades and I-90 corridor and learn what mistakes may have led the victims to their distressful positions. Brush up on what to do if you find yourself in a tricky situation, and how to avoid them in the first place. Check out interesting devices used to transport victims out of difficult locations and tricks used to help prevent further injury. Lastly, learn from the experts of Search and Rescue how to teach your kids and yourself the best way to avoid the "what ifs" of backcountry dangers.
