Auto Extrication Training ✅
Electric Vehicle Familiarization ✅

As vehicles evolve, so does our training. Last night members of East Grand Fire hosted Winter Park Transit and the new Electric Bus! Members got an overview of the newly acquired electric bus, inside and out. This helps all first responders be better prepared for an incident involving new and emerging technologies.

Crews then transitioned into a colder environment to hone their auto extrication skills. Stabilization techniques, patient care, and scene safety were just a few of the items from last nights training. We strive to be at our best to be prepared for anything we may encounter on or off the roadway.

Is that a fire by Sheep Mountain?! East Grand Fire members have been busy this week burning piles along with crews from the Grand Wildland Division and the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control. The Crooked Creek Ranch (Young Life Camp) pile burning project is part of an effort to reduce wildfire risk and improve community safety.

Smoke and flames will continue to be visible this week.
