Shoreline fire calls May 22 - 28 - quite a variety this week

Four Shoreline Fire Fighters competed in the Leavenworth Firefighter Challenge. Climbing 1,665 vertical feet over 6.2 miles (10k) of rugged National Forest terrain tested the physical and mental endurance of the toughest competitors. The Challenge gave Firefighters the opportunity to both test themselves and for Wildland agencies and Structural departments to compete and see who was the toughest. Firefighter Merlino finished 6th overall with a time of just over 1.5 hours!
