Winter Search and Rescue (SAR) missions are difficult and dangerous. SAR members must learn skills to keep themselves safe so they don’t go from rescuer to victim. These students are learning and practicing winter sheltering at the Cal OES Winter SAR training.
Search and rescue members practice snow cave construction.

Although the earthquake didn't trigger a #MyShake alert to cell phones, we know some of you felt shaking this AM! Don't forget to always take protective action like Drop, Cover, and Hold On.
