🔥 Redmond Fire on the Front Lines of the Cram Fire 🔥

This summer, Redmond Firefighter Nick has been serving beyond city limits as part of Northwest Team 10 on the Cram Fire—a massive wildland fire near Madras, Oregon that has burned 95,736 acres and engaged over 530 personnel.

As a Communications Technician (COMT), Nick plays a vital role in setting up and maintaining the complex communication systems that keep crews connected and safe on large-scale incidents. These systems are the lifeline for firefighters working in rugged terrain and challenging conditions.

We’re proud of Nick’s expertise and dedication, and of Redmond’s continued commitment to supporting our regional and national wildland firefighting efforts.

📸 Check out a few snapshots from the field, showcasing the behind-the-scenes work that makes a major incident run smoothly.

On a hot summer afternoon, our Redmond Firefighters stepped up to the plate—but this time, with a deck gun instead of a bat! 🌞💪
