But there’s even more to this film. Kittitas County Search and Rescue team are in final five nominations for the Defender Service Awards. Success would mean a new, potentially life-saving Land Rover Defender and $25,000 for a team of people who regularly put their lives on the line to help rescue others. Not for nothing is the KCSR motto, “So others may live.”
“It was an absolute honor to be a part of this project and to be entrusted with the position of representing a true search and rescue member,” said DirtFish’s head of strategy and Women in Motorsport coordinator Josie Rimmer.
“Thanks to Motion State’s commitment to honesty and accuracy, we were able to meet and learn from the real heroes at Kittitas Search and Rescue, and I can’t even put into words how in awe I am of them.
“This storyline is extra special to me, of course, because I got to share it with my dad. My dad who has been my hero in this wonderful life, and who has always encouraged me to step into the wild, acknowledging the danger, but never letting it stop us.
