Before firefighters can go out in icy water or on Ice, they need to refresh on the equipment they will be required to use. Last night they spent the better part of 2 hours refreshing / inspecting / practicing with all the equipment “cold water” related. Suits, PFD’s, ropes, burping the suit to throwing rope bags with accuracy – they practiced it all.

Just one more way your local firefighters prepare to keep you safe.
