While there are many qualified search methods to track down a missing person (s), the ATV Search and Rescue Squad is prepared to go into places that other means of equipment and dogs cannot go. We are presently a volunteer group of dedicated and experienced All-Terrain Vehicle operators with many years of experience in extremely remote areas throughout Ontario.

Our goal is very simple; assist local authorities and unfortunate families who are missing a loved one and are in need of an immediate detailed ground, search and rescue operation.

There are many ways to locate a missing person, however a properly concentrated plan extensively detailing the search grid is extremely important to a Safe and Successful search.

Safety and Team effort is a key role in a qualified search.

Our ATV machines are thoroughly maintained and checked prior to going into any remote and dangerous areas. GSAR (ground, search and rescue) gear is always ready to go.

ATV’s Searches are very versatile and can cover a large area in a short and crucial time period and are becoming a very useful tool.

Please take the time to add this page (link) and our web site to your own computer favorites because one day, you a family member, friend or neighbor might go missing and will need our immediate assistance and you can contact us directly and promptly.
