As of the end of October, Cedar Fire has now run more calls than in the entirety of 2024! We are continuing to stay busy with calls of all types, as well as conducting trainings such as the recent rope rescue training at Pyramid Point. We hope all of you stay safe during hunting season and the upcoming holidays!

Attention Hunters! Make Sure We Can Find You This Deer Season.

Deer season opens tomorrow, and we know many of you will be deep in the woods, far from roads and cell towers. If you or a hunting partner needs urgent help, knowing your location is the first step.

Cedar Area Fire and Rescue encourages every hunter to download the free what3words app.
How it helps us find you:
• It divides the entire world into 10 ft} \times 10 ft} squares.
• Each square has a unique, memorable three-word identifier (e.g., cabin.woods.trail).
• In an emergency, just share those three words with 911/dispatch, and we can navigate directly to your exact spot, saving precious time.

Stay safe, be prepared, and happy hunting!

Today, with their greater density yet lesser cost, we use lithium-ion batteries as the main power source for smartphones, laptops, tablets, medical devices, power tools, drones, scooters, bikes, and electric cars. However, if lithium batteries are not stored properly with the right compliance and handling, they not only have less longevity but can also become extremely dangerous.

Use Cables That Came with the Products
Anything with a lithium-ion battery—phones, laptops, e-bikes, power tools—can become a fire hazard if it’s not charged safely. Always use the charger that came with the device or one approved by the manufacturer. If the cord only works when you bend it just right, it’s time to replace it.
