Historical NoteReturn to Top

The Mountain Rescue Association was founded in 1959 at Mt. Hood, Oregon. It was a continuation of the Mountain Rescue Council, sometimes also known as the Mountain Rescue and Safety Council, which was founded in 1948 by Ome Daiber, Wolf Bauer, and Otto Trott in Washington. The Association is an all-volunteer not-for-profit organization which provides mountain rescue and promotes mountain safety education. Administratively it is divided into regions and then into teams.

The association disseminates and provides exchange of information about all aspects of rescue procedures, safe practices, equipment, and mountain rescue operations. It also provides coordination and standardization for use of alpine techniques, regardless of terrain.

Interest in creating a national association developed at a training conference attended by 400 people at Timberline Lodge around 1957. Such conferences had been occurring for a number of years, initially organized by The Mountain Rescue and Safety Council, later growing to attract attendees from across the west. Eleven rescue teams primarily from Washington and Oregon signed the original Mountain Rescue Association bylaws in 1959.

In 2011, there were 100 teams including two in Canada.
