Kingston Fire participated in a multi agency rope access training, in a real plausible scenario with hiking trails next to steep terrain and drop offs. Everyday we are better because of this proactive attitude towards our community, thank you OES, and Rescue Squad, and our amazing photographer Benny Braden with Rescue Media

KFD worked on RIT training for a down firefighter, brushing up on negotiating a stairwell for a one man and two man technique, this is very taxing to do by yourself but even our smallest guy showed it can be done using this style setup and we threw in some unconscious victim rescue using a ladder.
