Trained Personnel Our personnel go through an extensive probationary training program. During this program they are thoroughly trained in how to use a topographic map and compass, taught what clothing is appropriate for search missions in all weather conditions, how to search effectively in a grid pattern, how to work with helicopter resources and basics of wilderness survival and tracking. They are taught the Incident Command System also. The team conducts 2 training drills per month for all its personnel. These are held on the second Sunday and the last Wednesday of each month. Topics cover the full spectrum of skills necessary to search and rescue missions. Besides this training, our dog handlers must work with their dogs daily and our human trackers also log many extra hours of training.
