The trailhead is lying to you. 🛣️
Most March rescues don’t start in a blizzard. ❄️
They start in shorts and a hoodie. 🩳👕

If it looks wet in February, it’s already too late. 🥶
Black ice doesn’t care how experienced you are. 🧗

You’re crushing it on the winter alpine tundra.
If you can’t feel it, it’s already worse than you think.

It cares how wet, windy and stubborn you get.
Cold is uncomfortable. Frostbite is permanent.

#Winter doesn’t care how tough you are.
Cotton is out to kill you.
#Hypothermia doesn’t come at you with a roar.
It whispers, waits and steals your heat.
Winter hikes are magical,
Until you become the weakest link.

When the radios go quiet, the mission ends, but the purpose never does.
#SearchAndRescue isn’t built on adrenaline. It’s built on #compassion.
#TakeTheExtraMinute to reflect on the quiet moments of kindness on #NationalFirstRespondersDay.
