Leadville/Lake County Fire Rescue

"First In-Last Out" is the core ideology of LLCFR. In this simple statement lives the standard of excellence to which we measure ourselves, the finest traditions of the fire service to which we commit ourselves and the altitude to which we daily aspire. We are the community's all-risk response agency, to which people turn to in times of need. We therefore pride ourselves on being the First In - never shirking our responsibility to protect the public whom we serve, or serving the public whom we protect - and Last Out - never leaving until our job is finished. This is the ideology of the entire organization, from management to line firefighter which drives our daily efforts, whether conducting vehicle checks, helping with a community event, fighting fire or rescuing people from danger.
