Let someone know before you go
It’s important to tell someone about your trip intentions so they can contact police if something goes wrong. Your safety is in your hands so, let someone know before you go. Register your trip intentions any time you are heading somewhere remote. The intentions form captures information that might help search and rescue teams find you in the event of an emergency. Your trip details will be sent to the relatives, friends, or trusted person that you nominate, with instructions on how to contact Police Search and Rescue if you don’t return on time. Please read the privacy policy here. The relevant privacy statement is also included at the end of this form.
If you own a PLB, ensure it is registered, and on every remote trip register your trip intentions here.
The form is divided into three parts.
- Your Hike
- Your group and Equipment
- Your Emergency Contacts
To complete this form, you need
