New fire truck in Montello

 After many months of waiting. Engine 53 has arrived in Montello.

It will not be put in service until all training has been completed. Plus Tacoma Township will be added to the truck somewhere. Finally the residents of Montello will have another fire engine to protect the town!! Congratulations. Long over due but well deserved!!!

Patterson Pass fire pictures

 

JT and members of the Montello FD were stationed at a ranch up in the mountains 1 mile from the fire line on the Nevada side.  These picture were taken by a neighbor. This fire was named the Ryolite Fire. It started in Utah and then crossed into Nevada. Per Utah website it is 90% contained but after rain the past few days hopefully this fire and the one at 21 mile(named 20 mile) are now out. Here is the Utah website for wildfires: http://www.utahfireinfo.gov/. The us forest service has a website that show wildfires through out the US: http://forestry.about.com/gi/o.htm?zi=1/XJ&zTi=1&sdn=forestry&cdn=education&tm=8&f=10&su=p284.13.342.ip_&tt=3&bt=0&bts=0&zu=http%3A//activefiremaps.fs.fed.us/

Fire 21 miles north of Montello

This fire is located at the area named  21 mile on the Winecup Gamble ranch. The wildfire was renamed to 20 mile on the Elko county incident website. JT was the first responder and took this video. The picture below the video is what the fire looked like when JT first arrived. July 12, 2012

Coming for a visit

Just to let everyone know I will be out in Montello June 30- July 14. Yeah!!!

Mystery Mountain

If you look just in front of the fire truck and WAY in the distant you will see what looks like a mountain.  Just a cloud though. Awesome!
