West Elk Mountain Rescue

West Elk Mountain Rescue (WEMR) was created in 1996 to serve the remote areas of Gunnison County and fill a void in search and rescue coverage in the western end of the county. We cover mainly the McClure Pass, Kebler Pass, and Black Mesa areas. Since the formation of our team, we have begun to offer our support to the National Parks Service on the north rim of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison.
