Utah County Fire

The New UCFD Brush 11 making its way home from @bfxfireapparatus in Texas. Thanks to BFX for a great build #UCFD #utahcountyfiredepartment

@UWCNF has extended Stage 1 fire restrictions until October 15. Fire danger is EXTREME, with dry vegetation, low precipitation, and human caused fires. Exercise caution while using local National Forest lands. @UtahCountyFD @UtahWildfire @UC_FireMarshal api.utahcounty.gov/sheriff/media/…

Weather, fire behavior at night, smoke inversions, and duty limitations are all factors that are to be considered during night operations #ucfd #utahcountyfiredepartment #nightops

Even the nighttime humidity is not high enough to slow the timber fires #ucfd #idahofires #enginecrew

The fire activities across the west are keeping all the crews busy, Engine 11 is still deployed in Idaho #ucfd #utahcountyfiredepartment

@gmsumsion Crews will continue to work and monitor but the spread has been stopped as of yesterday

@UtahCountyFD Can you give an update on this fire?

New Fire: Located up left Fork Hobble Creek is being hit hard by Utah County Fire and the Forest Service

Update on Hobble Creek Fire supression The Fire is looking god with growth halted around 15 acres

Crew 2 headed to the #NeffsFire

Despite cooler weather, fire danger throughout Utah is still EXTREME! I am no firefighter, but I do believe cooler dry fuels can still burn! We all need to exercise caution when engaging in outdoor recreation! @UCSO @UtahCountyFD @UtahWildfire @UC_FireMarshal @UWCNF

Fourteen days in Montana fighting fire and the Utah County Crew 2 made it back home. #resteasy #ucfd #utahcountyfiredepartment

There is little rest for the saw teams with the current fires. #ucfd @STIHLUSA @UCSO

Today we take our hat off to one of our great resources, the Utah County Dozer Operators. These individuals have helped save many homes, enabled burnout operations, and respond in an instant. The dozer is currently on the Williams Fire punching in line @UCSO @UtahCountyGov

Wildland Firefighting is full of action adventure and well...Wildlife. From great horned owls, elk and moose The Handcrew has come across a few bears on the fire line in Montana, both parties quietly keep their safe distance. With long camera lenses they were able to take this.

Utah Country Handcrew is still working in Montana on operational day 11. #ucfd @UCSO

Fire Chief Patrick Carlson and the Engine 12 crew deployed this morning to Idaho for the Woodhead Fire #ucfd #utahcountyfiredepartment @UCSO

One of our @UCSO Sergeants took these photos at the #GoshenFire yesterday. Since @Twitter doesn’t allow more than four pics at a time I’ll do them in stages. 1/3

With the cooperation of many department and the local IMT team, the Goshen Fire is looking good. Resources will continue to work the line the next few days under direction of the same incident Team running the Williams Fire.
