This morning Captain Justin Becker was in Levenworth, WA to take on the Levenworth Firefighter Challege.
What does this challege look like??
✅️6.2 miles (10k) up a trail on a mountain. ✅️Approximately 1900ft of elevation gain and then back down the other side.

This year he chose to do the Arduous division which required full wildland fire PPE including NFPA approved wildland boots and 25 # weight and a tool.

We are happy to report he completed this in 1 hour 37 minutes (unofficial time).

Congratulations Captain Becker!

Attached are start (he is in the front in the red helmet) and finish pictures sent to us from him.

Last night we hosted Life Flight for a landing zone and helicopter safety class. It's an opportunity for us to collaborate and train with a great resource in our area, when seconds don't count, so we can be at our best when seconds do count.

Thank you to the Lewiston Life flight crew for joining us, updating us on some new things and refreshing us on things we don't do every day (thankfully).
