The Navajo County Sheriff’s Posse is a volunteer Search and Rescue organization that operates under the direction of, and with the endorsement of, the Navajo County Sheriff’s Office. When the Sheriff calls, our members are ready to assist with search and rescue, emergency response, and public safety across the county.
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit made up entirely of volunteers. Our members are trained and certified, mounted and unmounted, and many cover the cost of their own gear and training so the Posse can respond wherever it is needed, including the remote and rugged country that makes Navajo County so difficult to search.
Each year we host our own Pony Express Ride, a horseback tradition that raises funds and awareness for our search and rescue work. Our inaugural ride was completed on January 31, 2025, and the second annual ride follows in 2026.
Our volunteers come from across Navajo County: ranchers, first responders, and everyday citizens who share a commitment to serve. Together they make up the membership of the Navajo County Sheriff’s Posse.







Membership in the Navajo County Sheriff’s Posse runs through the Navajo County Sheriff’s Office. If you share our commitment to service, we would be glad to ride with you.
