In this episode of The Real ResQ Podcast, host Jason Quinn sits down with Moose Mutlow, lead trainer for the Yosemite Search and Rescue team and author of two books.
Mutlow takes us through his incredible journey — from the Lake District in England to rescue missions around the world — sharing decades of wisdom earned in some of the toughest environments. He reflects on the importance of resilience in self-rescue situations, the dangers of complacency, and the critical role of ongoing training for anyone in the search and rescue community.
The discussion dives deep into the mental health challenges faced by rescuers, the impact of trauma, and the ways that community support, mentorship, and physical activity build strength in the face of adversity. Moose opens up about unique experiences in wildlife rescue, and how saying yes to opportunities has shaped his path.
He also talks about his motivation for writing books that support the search and rescue community, emphasizing the importance of capturing knowledge, fostering mentorship, and preparing future generations.
This conversation is as much about the human side of rescue as it is about the technical side — shining a light on the resilience, vulnerability, and commitment that define those who dedicate their lives to helping others. Enjoy!
