The Mounted Team is comprised of a group of dedicated horsemen and women who want to use their expertise to help people in need. The group felt that the unique abilities of the horse would be an asset in finding lost persons in and around El Dorado County.
The members are trained in CPR, first aid, map & compass, man-tracking, crime scene Investigation, and search techniques, in addition to their horse training. The horses and riders are required to pass many requirements to ensure that they are safe and capable of performing the tasks required of them.
