What a beautiful day for a burn to learn. We just lit our first set. You will see smoke from the wildcat area. Don’t be alarmed, it is just us.

On Saturday, May 30th, Molalla Fire will be hosting the North Willamette Valley Fire Academy “Burn to Learn” training event at 12545 S. Wildcat Rd.

If you see smoke in the area, please do not be alarmed. Approximately 30 firefighters will be participating in live fire training throughout the day.

This type of hands-on training is invaluable for our new firefighters. Opportunities to train in a real structure are rare and provide experience that cannot be replicated in a classroom setting.

We would like to sincerely thank the property owners for their generous donation and support of firefighter training.

Wildcat Road is narrow with limited access, so we ask the public to please avoid the area during the training event if possible.

Today at approx. 2:40pm Molalla Fire District responded to a report of a fall more than 30 minutes outside Molalla in unincorporated Clackamas County. Crews arrived to find a patient approximately 50-60 feet down a steep cliff, in terrain that made access extremely challenging.

Because of the location and technical needs of the rescue, the Technical Rescue Team from Clackamas Fire was requested to assist. With their expertise and the assistance from Canby Fire District , and Silverton Fire, responders were able to safely reach, stabilize, and transport the patient to a local hospital.

We would also like to extend a sincere thank you to Colton Rural Fire Protection for covering additional calls in our area during this incident. This was our third call occurring at the same time, their support ensured our community continued to receive uninterrupted emergency service.

We are grateful for the strong collaboration with our mutual aid partners that make complex rescues like this a success.
