Portland Mountain Rescue
Areas of Operation
Main area of operations:
Our primary geographic coverage is the West and South sides of Mount Hood. However, we
are regularly called to search and rescue events in the foothills of Mount Hood near
Estacada, Oregon, and other high angle areas of Clackamas County, Oregon.
|
Secondary area of operations:
Occasionally, PMR is called in to high angle areas of the Oregon Coast Range, Western
Columbia River Gorge, Multnomah County, Oregon, and Skamania County, Washington. We
are also asked to assist other search and rescue units in Central Oregon and Western
Washington. These areas include large Cascade Range mountain peaks from Mount Rainier
near Seattle, Washington, to Mount Bachelor near Bend, Oregon.
|
Please Note:
When needed, PMR stands ready to provide assistance to Pacific Northwest search and rescue
(SAR) units outside of our main and secondary areas of operation. When necessary, other
SAR units will assist PMR missions in our operations area.
