SLTFR 1st alarm with the help of TDFPD and LVFPD for a TC rollover into a tree. This was early this morning on Lake Tahoe Blvd. near San Jose Ave. The patient was extricated in critical condition and flown to Renown by calstar from the scene.
South Lake Tahoe Firefighters assisted Cal Tahoe JPA with disinfecting one of their ambulances this morning after a transport. Personnel utilized a product called Decon 7 to fog the inside surfaces of the unit.
In one 48 hour ‘tour’, SLTFR crews can respond to a real variety of calls and experience a real variety of events. A Shift did some N95 mask fit testing, fire and EMS training, responded to vehicle accidents, fire calls, CPR calls and a variety of medical aids. #weexistforyou
Some excellent training with our mutual aid partners tonight. SLTFR, Tahoe Douglas and Lake Valley trained on multi company drills through several scenarios tonight at the Super 8 motel. #weexistforyou
Future SLTFR Truck 2 is in week 2 of production at Pierce Manufacturing. Should be complete this Spring!

SLTFR reminds you and your family to drive safely. Don’t forget to carry chains and keep your gas tank full. Expecting snow at low elevations this week. #weexistforyou. #caltrans. #stayoutoftheditch. #slowdown
