We appreciate the opportunity to better serve our community by having the best equipment.

Fort Morgan Fire got called out last night for a cattle truck that rolled with cattle on board. Within minutes of being on scene we had brand inspector, Dale Chacon and Jeffery Hanson, on scene with us followed by multiple local ranchers with stock trailers, portable corrals, and hands willing and ready to work. Thank you to all the professionals who came out and taught us firemen a thing or two…… or ten. Also thanks to Wiggins Junction for their help with heavy lifting, hazmat, and getting the trailer opened up.
