Purchase a Colorado Outdoor Recreation Search and Rescue (CORSAR) Card
Why Buy a CORSAR Card?
Colorado residents and visitors are well served by dedicated volunteer search and rescue teams, but mission costs are
often in the thousands of dollars. By purchasing a CORSAR card you are contributing to the Search and Rescue Fund,
which will reimburse these teams for costs incurred in your search and rescue. Funds remaining at the end of the year
are used to help pay for training and equipment for these teams. Anyone with a current hunting/fishing license, or boat,
snowmobile, ATV registration is already covered by the fund.
The CORSAR Card Is Not Insurance
The card is not insurance and does not reimburse individuals nor does it pay for medical transport. Medical transport
includes helicopter flights or ground ambulance. If aircraft are used as a search vehicle, those costs are reimbursed
by the fund. If the aircraft becomes a medical transport due to a medical emergency, the medical portion of the
transport is not covered.
Purchase Card
The CORSAR cards are available for $3 for one year and $12 for five years, and can be purchased at over 300 retailers in the state.

For the cost of the card, you have helped ensure that trained and well equipped search and rescue teams will respond should you become lost or in need of rescue. Furthermore, volunteers will not have to incur undue expense due to your emergency.
