Rescue

Our Fire District is responsible for providing both emergency and non-emergency responses to the citizens of Incline Village/Crystal Bay, Nevada. We take pride in going above and beyond the normal expectations of our customers and constantly strive to improve our services.

Our Fire District is what we consider an “All Risk” Fire District. We respond to all types of emergency and/or public service situations. We have the equipment to respond to traditional “fire service” calls such as structure fires, forest (wildland) fires, automobile wrecks, and emergency medical services. In addition to these situations, we respond to backcountry emergencies, boats and/or swimmers in distress, avalanche extractions, snowmobile and all-terrain vehicle accidents, rope rescue, over the side (hill) rescues, and searches. To help us accomplish these diverse needs, the fire district owns a heavy rescue squad, a rescue boat, and one utility terrain vehicle (UTV) in addition to the traditional fire and emergency medical equipment.
