Even when the fire danger is low, we are making sure our type II crew stays active while on stand by. We go through fire fighting simulations to maintain different knowledge and skills such as danger tree assessment, pump maintenance and set up, hand guard building and of course, our COVID-19 protocols. Needless to say, days like these also help our guys staying in shape. 👨‍🚒😜

Also don't forget : We are still actively looking for experienced firefighters to fill positions on our type III team (minimum of 5 days on the fireline). Great job opportunities here!! Keep sharing, we appreciate it. 🙏😉 https://www.goldenfirejumpers.com/employement
