Mountain
Search and Rescue
The MCSA's Sections
offer a volunteer specialist service in mountain search and rescue together
with government institutions and other volunteer organisations.
Mountain Search and Rescue Contact Numbers:
Eastern Province - (041) 10111
Gauteng - (011) 315-0203
KwaZulu-Natal - (031) 307-7744
Western Cape - Metro Rescue (021) 948 9900
Please note, when contacting Mountain Search and Rescue, that the
first information required is the number of the phone you are phoning
from.
Information regarded as necessary:
What happened? (Fall/snake-bite/heat-exhaustion
etc)
To whom? (Name, Gender, Age)
Where? (Area, Kloof, Nearest climb if known
Description of injuries ( Where on body, severity,
fractures)
Condition of person (Alert, Responds to Voice,
Responds to pain, Unconscious)
Access routes (How do we find you?)
STAY AT THE PHONE! If necessary, send SOMEONE ELSE back!
A point of concern is that great difficulty is being experienced raising
funds for Search and Rescue. The Club relies on financial assistance
to replace its specialised Search and Rescue equipment, and if funds
are not available this could jeopardise not only the quality of service
rendered, but also the safety of club members involved in Search and
Rescue, and of the members of the public to whom the service is rendered.
