furnace creek fd - squad 61 - 1 photo from 2024

https://maps.app.goo.gl/7ofJh5oCgbVNEVYv6

that could be the entire furnace creek fd / fire brigade

iirc - death valley natl park at this time has 2 fire stations - nps
has 1 structural engine and 1 ambulance at the nps compound at cow
meadow which is 3 miles north of furnace creek - furnace creek is the
tourist area and has its own fire brigade which could be funded by the
concessionaire

here the furnace creek fire sta is listed as a reserve blm fire
station - not sure if that is true or not - have never seen blm list
any fire station in death valley -

interesting - they have a 1977 crown engine also - cool - also this
claims the vfd or vfb is also a reserve blm unit - it would make sense
for blm or nps to have some wildfire capabilitys in death valley - nps
used to have 2 ty1 engines and 1 ty3 engine - now they are down to
just 1 ty1 engine apparently

looks like squad 61 could be a brush buggy in the desert area
