North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District

To Protect Life & Property through efficient delivery of quality community services. Our Fire District is what we consider an "All Risk" Fire District.

We respond to all types of emergency and/or public service situations. We have the equipment to respond to traditional "fire service" calls such as structure fires, forest (wildland) fires, automobile wrecks, and emergency medical services. In addition to these situations, we respond to back country emergencies, boats and/or swimmers in distress, avalanche extractions, snowmobile and all-terrain v

ehicle accidents, rope rescue, over the side (hill) rescues, and searches. To help us accomplish these diverse needs, the fire district owns a heavy rescue squad, a rescue boat, and one UTV Ranger in addition to the traditional fire and emergency medical equipment.

🎒📚 Back to school means back to safety!

As students head back to the classroom, we are asking everyone to use a little extra caution on our roads and around our schools.

🚗 Drivers: Slow down in school zones, watch for students at crosswalks and bus stops, and put the phone away.

🚲 Students & families: Use designated crosswalks, wear a properly fitted helmet when biking or riding an e-bike, stay visible, and follow the rules of the road.

🎒 Don’t forget the backpack: Use both shoulder straps and keep it light. The National Safety Council recommends backpacks weigh no more than 5–10% of a child’s body weight.

A few extra seconds of patience and attention can make all the difference.

Slow down. Stay alert. Look out for each other.

Wishing our students, families, teachers, and school staff a safe and successful school year! ✏️🍎

🎒📚 ¡El regreso a clases también significa regresar con seguridad!

Mientras los estudiantes regresan a las aulas, les pedimos a todos tener un poco más de precaución en nuestras calles y alrededor de nuestras escuelas.

🚗 Conductores: Reduzcan la velocidad en las zonas escolares, estén atentos a los estudiantes en los cruces peatonales y paradas de autobús, y guarden el teléfono.

🚲 Estudiantes y familias: Utilicen los cruces peatonales designados, usen un casco adecuado al andar en bicicleta o bicicleta eléctrica, manténganse visibles y respeten las reglas de tránsito.

🎒 No olviden la mochila: Utilicen ambas correas para los hombros y manténganla ligera. El Consejo Nacional de Seguridad recomienda que las mochilas no pesen más del 5% al 10% del peso corporal del niño.

Unos segundos adicionales de paciencia y atención pueden hacer una gran diferencia.

Reduzcan la velocidad. Manténganse alerta. Cuidémonos unos a otros.

¡Les deseamos a nuestros estudiantes, familias, maestros y personal escolar un año escolar seguro y exitoso! 🍎✏️

🌲 Spotted around the neighborhood… 👀

A few of our residents are proudly displaying their new Defensible Space yard signs after completing their inspections — and we love seeing them pop up around the community!

Wildfire preparedness starts at home, and every property that takes action helps create a safer neighborhood for residents, neighbors, and firefighters. 🚒🏡🌲

One property at a time. One neighborhood at a time. One safer community.

Have you signed up for your Defensible Space inspection yet?

📱 Scan the QR code on the sign or visit our website to schedule yours.

Already have your sign? Tag us in a photo — we want to see it! 🙌

Thank you to our B111 crew for your hard work, professionalism, and dedication. We are proud to have you representing North Lake Tahoe Fire wherever you are needed.

🐛🌲 Wally the Worm is making great progress!

As of August 5, 2026, 19.6 of 113.9 acres have been completed in Phase 2 of the Worm Project!

Each acre treated helps expand the defensible space protecting neighborhoods above Highway 431 by reducing hazardous vegetation, improving firefighter access, and strengthening our community’s resilience to wildfire.

Check out Wally’s updated progress map and photos of completed work!

Thank you for your continued patience and support as we work together to build a safer, more fire-adapted community.
