Platte Canyon Wildland Fire Module

The Platte Canyon Wildland Fire Module (PCWFM) is a ten-person wildland fire crew based out of the Platte Canyon Fire Protection District in Bailey, Colorado.

As a highly skilled and versatile fire crew, they provide technical and ecological-based expertise in the areas of prescribed fire and wildfire response. This includes long-term planning, ignitions holding, suppression, hazard fuels reduction, and fire effects monitoring. While implementing these techniques, the crew helps ensure fire fulfills its natural role to meet resource and management objectives. Platte Canyon Wildland Hand Crew operates 4 Ford F-350 4×4. The 20 person Type II Hand Crew responds out of Station 1 in the summer and is stored at Station 4 in the off-season.
