We played hydrant hide-n-seek again today, this time in Trappers Point. Some hydrants were nearly impossible to find, even with a flag. They are your hydrants to help protect your home.

Mountain Green Fire Engine 131 assisted Morgan Fire&EMS at a semi on fire today on I-84 at milepost 99 between Peterson and Morgan. Morgan firefighters made a great knockdown of the fire but ran short of water. E131 arrived and transferred water to Morgan’s engine, and command instructed a second hose line pulled to continue to wet down burning tires. Burning brakes were the cause of the fire. The cargo was carpet rolls. E131 provided a total of 2,000 gallons of water after responding to Peterson to refill from a hydrant. Nice job, Morgan Fire!
