With a major snowstorm hitting Saturday night through Sunday morning, the Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Search and Rescue team is ready.
“A few days ago, it was beautiful, sunny, warm, 70 degrees,” said Wayne Bassham, a member of the team. “Forty hours later, it's into the 30s and it's snowing."
Whether it's an ATV, a snowmobile, on skis or on foot, the team will be ready to rescue anyone caught in adverse conditions. “Well, we always expect people to be prepared,” Bassham said, “but you never can predict the future.”He described moments like “the husband and wife meet in the parking lot with their son or daughter and give them a hug” as ones that “kind of keep bringing you back day in and day out.”On Saturday, they were getting ready for extreme conditions, training and practicing lots of different snow rescue techniques.
