PVSART MISSION STATEMENT
The Pemigewasset Valley Search and Rescue Team is a volunteer organization that
formed in 2005 to assist with woodlands searches for lost or missing persons and
with carry outs. It provides support to the New Hampshire Fish & Game Department,
which under RSA 206: 26 (XII) has controlling authority for all woodlands search and
rescue services in the state of New Hampshire. PVSART responds only to requests
from New Hampshire Fish & Game or other public safety agencies. The primary
response area for the team is Grafton County and the western side of the White
Mountains.
PVSART also promotes hiker safety by providing trained speakers to address local
school groups and other organizations and by posting safety information and
resources for hikers on this site.
Membership is open to all hikers 18 and over in good physical condition who live in
the local area. Further requirements and applications are here.
