Colorado Search & Rescue Teams Stretched Thin

By Matt Kroschel
SUMMIT COUNTY, Colo. (CBS4) – Exploring Colorado’s remote backcountry is more popular than ever and the increase in visitors is putting a crunch on search and rescue crews in Colorado.
In Boulder County, search and rescue crews say 2015 was a record breaking year for calls for help. Summit County Search and Rescue Group members report the same thing. So far in 2016, the calls are on track for many rescue crews to beat those records again this year.
