James Guy Mansfield, PhD has been active in Search and Rescue since 2008, with experience as a member of Everett Mountain Rescue and Snohomish County Volunteer Search and Rescue. He has deployed on SAR missions ranging from wilderness searches, to technical rope-rescues, to disaster searches, to urban searches for missing children.

Growing up in California, Guy spent much of his youth climbing the granite walls of Yosemite and summiting peaks of the Sierra Nevada with his brother. Their adventures expanded to explorations of the California coast, and included traversing the shoreline of Point Reyes National Park, which required traversing caves and tide pools passable only at extreme low tides. With his wife June, he has hiked and climbed in the French and Swiss Alps, explored remote lava tubes in Hawaii, and snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.

Guy has served as Operations Section Chief and Planning Section Chief on some of the largest searches in northwest Washington State, and is currently a Director of the Washington State SAR Planning Unit. He has worked closely with law enforcement to plan and manage large-scale searches for human remains in criminal cases.

He has a Ph.D. from the Department of Behavioral Neuroscience at Oregon Health Sciences University, and has done research at the University of Washington and the University of Illinois Medical School. Guy has presented at national and international SAR conferences, has published in the Journal of Search and Rescue, and has authored over a dozen scientific papers and technical business articles.
