Evidently Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control's Multi-Mission Aircraft (MMA) "Guardian 328" (N328SF) is assisting with the search. If anyone knows what frequencies Guardian 328 might be using for this operation, please advise.

Just out of curiosity, who typically handles SAR calls on Longs Peak?

I don't want to say this is the correct answer but I believe Rocky Mountain conducts most of their own S&R missions. Depending on the complexity of the mission then other agencies will get involved. Rocky Mountain is within multiple counties so Rocky Mountain Rescue, Larimer County S&R, Grand County S&R could get involved. In some searches FFL, military, and other search organizations may get involved.

Chris is correct RMNP rangers are very experienced in SAR missions and contract FFL, commercial and military helicopters as needed.

166.350 is the normal coordination frequency for the east side.
