Search and Rescue (SAR) involves locating and evacuating persons who are trapped, lost and/or injured. The Appalachian Search & Rescue
Conference (ASRC) is a wilderness search
and rescue organization that provides
professional volunteers
trained in search management and
field operations for missions in the
mid-Atlantic region. Services
include all-weather search and rescue

Our conference is comprised of
individual groups of professional

search missions, group functions,
preventative instruction, and
public awareness. We have over 25
years of experience and our organization

state, federal, and local government
representatives in the art of
search and rescue. With ten teams spanning four states and over 350
active members, we are one of the largest SAR resources in the country.
We provide the following services:
