The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Wildland Fire Team hosted refresher training at Richmil Open Space near Deer Trail on March 30th, 2026. After a classroom session in the morning at the Deer Trail Volunteer Fire Department, the crews spent the afternoon working on the deployment of progressive hose packs, extinguishing a mock wildland fire, establishing fire breaks with hand tools and familiarizing themselves with wildland fire shelters. Firefighters from Arapahoe County, Bennett-Watkins Fire Rescue, Byers Fire Protection District and Strasburg Fire Protection District participated in the training.
