CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF SERVICE TO BONNEVILLE COUNTY AND SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES

The Bonneville County Sheriff's Search and Rescue is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization under the direction of the Bonneville County Sheriff.  It is the goal of the Bonneville County Sheriff's Search and Rescue to provide the citizens of Bonneville County and surrounding areas with an exceptionally well-trained search and rescue team.

The Bonneville County Sheriff's Search and Rescue relies heavily on donations from the community.  For more information on ways to contribute to the Bonneville County Sheriff's Search and Rescue, visit our "Contributors" page.

*** AVALANCHE DANGER HIGH ***

Due to the recent winter weather in Bonneville County in late December, the avalanche danger in the high country, especially in areas such as Waterfall Canyon, is considered HIGH.  Please review the avalanche forecast for the area prior to venturing into the area at  http://www.jhavalanche.org/scripts/avalanche.php?action=forecast&area=grey and take appropriate precautions.  Avalanche transceivers, probes, and shovels are highly recommended for travel into the area.

An avalanche awareness course is offered by the Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation.  Please visit their site at http://parksandrecreation.idaho.gov/recreation/snowmobileeducation.aspx for more information.
