Search and Rescue Dashboard

The Utah Search and Rescue Advisory board has dashboard to visualize the impact search and rescue has across the State of Utah. Since 1997 search and rescue teams have been able to seek reimbursement for the cost of search and rescue efforts. Reimbursement is broken down into three categories: searches, training, and equipment. The dashboard shows the types of activities and which county they were in.
The dashboard shows how much has been reimbursed statewide since 1997, and can be broken down to individual counties. These teams have provided over 1.3 million documented hours of service to our state. These volunteers are truly a great asset to each county.

Helicopter incident update

The Sevier County Sheriff’s Office, in coordination with state and federal partners, successfully recovered the remains of two individuals from a firefighting helicopter crash site near the Widemouth 2 Fire on August 8, 2026, following a treacherous, high-elevation operation. While the remains have been transferred to the Utah medical examiner’s office for identification, the NTSB and FAA are investigating the cause, which is being delayed by hazardous, active wildfire conditions surrounding the wreckage.
The Sevier County Sheriff’s Office offers our sincerest condolences to the families, loved ones, and coworkers affected by the loss of life.
Special thanks to the agencies who worked with us: Utah Highway Patrol DPS Aero Bureau, Fishlake National Forest, the Wide Mouth Fire incident management team, and the Great Basin Team 2, the operation was successful due to great teamwork.
