NZSS Cave Search and Rescue NZSS Speleological Society History Membership ... Member Login Caving News Areas Landmarks Search and Rescue ... Links NZ's Deepest NZ's Longest Photo galleries Sitemap Organisation Search and Rescue (SaR) operations in caves are not uncommon, though serious accidents are fortunately very rare. Cave SaR operations are organised in the same way as general "land SaR" operations. The Police administer the operation and organise logistical support as required, while experienced cavers carry out the actual rescue underground. The type of operation can vary considerably, from a "self-rescue" situation, where the remainder of the party is strong enough to assist an injured person to the surface, to a full-scale call out in a major cave. In this case, the Police will contact the cave SAR adviser for the area, who will call upon experienced local cavers (and those further afield in some cases). The adviser will liaise with the Police to ensure that the operation goes as smoothly as possible. A field controller will be appointed to manage the operation at the rescue site, while an underground controller is in charge of the operation in the cave. Cave SaR differences Cave rescues suffer from the disadvantages that helicopters can only be used on the surface, and that radio communications are not possible underground. However, there is the advantage that the rescue does not usually have to wait until dawn to commence. Because caves often have narrow, small, or wet passages, and in many cases vertical "pitches", cave rescue can be difficult and very exhausting.
