The Mountain Rescue Association (MRA) is the oldest Search and Rescue Association in the United States, established in 1959 at Timberline Lodge at Mount Hood, Oregon. Comprised of over 90 government authorized units, MRA is dedicated to saving lives through rescue and mountain safety education, improving the quality, availability, and safety of mountain search and rescue. With a strong presence in North America, MRA has become the critical resource for mountain search and rescue.
As an organization of teams, MRA focuses on providing training, education, and resources to rescue mountaineers. Their free online learning system offers certification in various rescue-related training topics, while their website features a large collection of learning and teaching materials available for download by MRA members. Through their commitment to rescue and mountain safety, MRA continues to be a leading authority in the field.
