When Things Go Wrong
Seattle Mountain Rescue volunteers have been helping hikers and other people who love the outdoors for decades.
WTA works every day to get people out on trail. We build and maintain trails, advocate for making them more accessible and create resources to help hikers to stay safe. But WTA can’t do it all – it takes a wide range of groups to care for the outdoors and the people who love being outside. And sometimes, things do go wrong. When they do, it’s nice to know that search and rescue organizations are there to help.
Seattle Mountain Rescue (SMR) is one of those groups that can help hikers or other outdoor recreationists when something goes wrong. Their motto: “Everybody comes home from the backcountry.”
