Fire crews responded to a fast moving grass fire this afternoon. Engine 91, water tender 91, and Car 901 contained the fire at a quarter acre. A reminder, Burn Permits are available at https://yavco.burnpermits.com. Don’t forget to call the number available online before beginning your burn and do not to use propane burners for clearing an open field.

Are you seeing smoke?

Prescribed fire operations, primarily involving pile burning, are planned by fire managers on the Prescott National Forest within the Prescott Basin of the Bradshaw Ranger District. The hand piles originate from recent hazardous fuels reduction and thinning projects. Pending the receipt of all necessary approvals, ignitions may commence as early as Monday, December 8, and persist through January 2026, contingent upon favorable conditions. Recent rainfall has created favorable conditions for pile burning in various regions across the forest. Smoke impacts are anticipated to be minimal and discernible from Prescott, Prescott Valley, Wilhoit, Chino Valley, Dewey Humboldt, and surrounding areas. As nighttime temperatures decrease, smoke may persist in drainages and valleys.

We are thankful to Native 4 for their recent visit to Bagdad Station 95. Their presence allowed our crew members to inspect the helicopter, encouraging a sense of community and collaboration. We value our partnership and the unwavering support they extend to our community members.

Today, fire crews responded to a reported structure fire. Upon arrival, they discovered a grease fire in the kitchen that extended into the attic and successfully extinguished the fire. Fortunately, there were no reports of injuries. This incident serves as a valuable reminder to never leave the kitchen unattended while cooking. Never use water to extinguish a grease fire. Instead, turn off the heat source and smother the fire by sliding a metal lid over the pan.

Our A-Shift firefighters and Mrs. Love secured third place at Bagdad’s annual trunk-or-treat event with a beautifully decorated Rescue 95. We hope you had the chance to see it in person. In the meantime, mark your calendars for our third annual haunted fire station on November 1st, starting at 6:30 pm. We look forward to seeing you there!

Our annual haunted fire station will be held November 1st 6:30pm to 9:00pm. Bring your best costumes and tag us in any pictures/videos you post. See you soon! 👻 🎃

The Yavapai County Fire Consortium wants to express heartfelt gratitude to The Windsock Cocktail Lounge for their incredible donation from their recent trivia night. You truly are the best!

❤️ Lending a hand beyond the emergency call

CAFMA Engine 57 and WVFD-Bagdad Fire & Rescue Engine 91 crews recently assisted an older couple after the husband was transported to the hospital. With his wife unable to drive and their vehicle with a flat tire, our crews changed the tire and drove the truck to the hospital parking lot so it would be waiting for them.

Thank you to our partners on Engine 91 for teaming up with 57 to make sure this couple was cared for all the way through!
