Last week, Congress Fire responded to reports of a brush fire on SR-71 and milepost 108. Yarnell Fire Engine 98 was dispatched to assist Engine 97 and Water Tender 97 in containing and extinguishing the fire. Battalion 9, Priority 751, and YCSO provided additional assistance.

No injuries were reported, and the fire was quickly extinguished. Please remember to be mindful of dragging chains and to call 911 to report any kind of emergency.

Yesterday afternoon, Yarnell and Congress Fire Districts, along with Priority Ambulance 751, Car 902 (Williamson Valley-Bagdad Fire District), and Native 4, responded to reports of an injured hiker on the Granite Mountain Hotshot Memorial Trail. Crews provided medical treatment in conjunction with Native 4. They assisted the hiker in descending the trail. The injured hiker subsequently decided that hospital transport was unnecessary.

As a reminder, always take plenty of water and food for yourself and anyone hiking with you. Make sure you inform friends and/or family of your intended hiking route and the anticipated time of your return.
