Seattle Mountain Rescue is finally home in North Bend.
The nonprofit has been volunteer-based for 75 years and just celebrated a milestone anniversary with the grand opening of its first-ever Mountain Rescue Center (MRC). The hub is in a strategic location which Chairperson Doug McCall said will be an advantage to the crew.
"It’s less than 5 miles from the busiest trails for rescues in KING County," McCall said.
