In today’s scenario a concrete culvert rolled into a trench pinning a worker to the ground. The #Rescue technicians had the trench walls shored up, culvert stabilized & lifted off the worker in <40 min. Nice work team! Thanks Tim Oldfield for the 📷 #cantf1 #usar

Great to see our own DC Herbert and AC Morrison (aka Canada Task Force 1 Task Force Leader) sharing what we’ve learned, absorbing ideas, and helping us elevate all Canadian teams to be global leaders in disaster response!

If you’re entering the backcountry, know the risk level and be prepared. Overconfidence and/or underprep can put you AND rescue teams like North Shore Rescue #whistlersar Coquitlam SAR BCSARA in avoidable danger. “It’s prob fine” ☠️❌ “Nah, let’s reevaluate on Monday” 👌✅

These @vanfirerescue #VFRS Special Operations Technicians also serve as rescue specialists on #CANTF1- their four disciplines (high angle, confined space, structural collapse, trench) make sure we can access anyone trapped by anything, anywhere. #vanspecops

We have our own mapping system and can print maps as we move forward to track progress in our recovery process. Our Canada Task Force 1 Geotech has  connection with NASA and can print real time data from satellite imagery.    Quite an impressive system. Lots of talent on this team.
