Colorado Problems

- Despite snow on the ground along north facing hillsides, the Colorado Front Range has seen Red Flag Warnings issued for low humidity, gusty winds and dry fuels. SMFR Firefighters recently assisted our Douglas County neighbors at Larkspur Fire Rescue with a 150 acre vegetation fire in their district. In this vlog we take viewers to a unique event where Hazmat Teams from across the Denver area gathered for training and showcased their equipment, and to Centennial Airport for ARFF apparatus acceleration testing on the runway. We share the first images of Tiller 34 being built, introduce our new PIO Makenzie, and share patch shout outs!

Welcome, Mackenzie! Glad to have you here along side Eric!
McKenzie is a great addition to the PIO team , Great hire SMFR!!!
Can’t wait to see the tiller going through the testing grounds at the Public Safety Training Center here in Appleton!! I work at the airport right next door, KATW and drive by the testing grounds every day.
Welcome, McKenzie! Glad to have you here!
Welcome, McKenzie! Hope to meet you soon. I went through the SMFR Citizens Academy in 2018, and these videos are always very interesting.
Congratulations MacKenzie on the new job and can't wait to see the new tiller for south metro
"Listened to scanners".......I like that. Great addition to your team
Nice to meet McKenzie your latest PIO. Sounds like she has a lot of experience in front of the camera and reporting so I am sure she will be a great asset to SMFR. Nice to see HazMat joining forces to be very effective in handling those types of situations. Looking forward to SMFR adding new apparatus to the fleet and getting a sneak peek as well. Great video.
Props to you for pronouncing Vedauwoo the Wyoming way!
Hello Metro rescue know if y’all seen this comment or not please read it. I am 14 and you are the ones that inspired me to learn about all the tools after high school I’m going to EMT school and beer, so thank you continue to both of my videos and have a good good day.
Try your best I am 17 and I turn 18 next month and I am in a program call fire explorers and I am trying become a firefighter when I turn 18
Ok
Oh nice
Good luck, my friends
im 15 and im a fire explorer with my local FD Its the best job in the world try your best you will be a good EMT
Welcome, Mackenzie. Glad to have you here
I'm so excited that Vedauwoo patch made it, and you guys even ponounced Vedauwoo correctly!
Welcome aboard McKenzie. And a new South Metro vid, best birthday present.
Welcome Abroad McKenzie
talking about the winter wildfires... we do have them over here as well (and it is the second highest risk season that we have especially now with no more fully covered snow areas)
a lot of dry brush and vegetation in winter puts it to higher risk levels, the only difference being that there is often icy roads when it is winter wildfire season now (and yes, a lot of people forget that fact in winter when just because it is cold doesn't make it less flamable when it comes to materials)
so yeah, luckily this time we didn't have any larger fires in our vegetation... but still quite a few smaller ones during winter
You did correctly say Vedauwoo. It is a Native American name for a grouping of rock formation between Laramie and Cheyenne Wyoming off of I-80. It is Romanized Arapaho meaning earth-born. Pretty cool place to go and hike and rock climb in my opinion.
Welcome McKenzie! You and Eric, Stay Safe out there!
That was such an unexpectedly wholesome and fun video!!
Much love from the Bigstone fire dept in northern Alberta Canada lots of our crew watch many many video and call it the south metro time do not disturb at the fire hall hoping to maybe possibly set up a patch trade or something stay safe guys and gals 🚒❤️🤙🏾
Always the most interesting topics and coverage
you guys are awesome and I would like to welcome the new member to crew
Love all PIO show. All have an awesome department and equipment. Would love to come out there and do a ride along with all. Great team of firefighters and paramedics

South metro fire rescue im13 and you have inspired me to keep my dream of being a firefighter and I have sill not Eddie where I am going to go
cant wait to see the tiller i never knew SMFR would get a tller
awesome video guys when is the next PIO Vlog
You should do a day in a life of a fire chief.
Love y’all!
I was surprised, a handful of years ago, to learn that there are two fire seasons, and it seems that the colder, dryer part of the year is worse.
Nice picture of the tiller. How is mommy Connor doing. Monroe Wisconsin in one of our southern city before you in Freeport Illinois. Hope later this year you be looking at the tiller when it gets farther along. Good oh Appleton.
Welcome
Hi Eric welcome McKenzie hope you guys have a safe weekend your friend kyle In Springfield Missouri
Yall should get powercall sirens on fire trucks like the PIO car, that siren would fit good with the trucks
As far as arff 1 thru 4 maintenance wise do you guys take them to fleet or does fleet send people out to fix them
What does she drive I love the new pio rides
Can’t wait for a fleet Friday on the New hazmat 38 speaking of how is 17’s liking there new hazmat rig
Are we going to see any new Video's or updates? Where is our Eric? we miss him
We need a day in the life of Connor
I have a few questions about the fire on ida ave
1. Every unit that responded and what they did on scene
2. Did the cats make it out OK?
3. When I was listening to the call on PulsePoint, I heard them say you have reached your 20 minute point would you like rehab and logistics can you tell me more about that?
Would you guys like a Barnstable MA fd patch?
Was SMFR requested or did send any brush trucks to the Smokehouse Creek Fire in Texas
No requests came in from TX for these fires but we did just send a type 3 brush engine to Illinois for a severity assignment. This is a first for us - going to Illinois for wildland. Guess they had a dry winter and are now in critical fire conditions.
What fire departments are in the metro area?
Eric did you get a new PIO vehicle because that doesn’t look like your truck your in?
I think it is??????
I need a link for purchasing shirts
Why were Safety 18 and 35 renumbered to Safety 1 and 2?
Welcome Mackenzie Eric if I wanted to send a patch to you guys how would I go about it
Is Brian gone already? Or is this a separate position. Seems like you guys are churning through PIO staff
Brian, Eric and Makenzie are all on board. We are full staff and going strong.
Did you guys end up sending any back up to the AirForce academy fire or was it to small
Welcome McKenzie
Oh welcome Mckenzie!
Are Station Saturdays done?
We still have a few more stations to feature. Station 40's video will be posted soon.
@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO Why so much time in between?
@@connorpickett2026I imagine because there's other stuff going on that they have to focus on
how to join you?
Do you like being a fire fighter?
When’s the next statuon Saturday it’s been six months
Are PIOS Firefighters?
Some are, some aren't. Eric for example came up from firefighting, while a few others come from media training.
But they get a basic training, including a command course, so they are able to size up an incident and relay information to dispatch if they ever happen to be the first on scene or are asked for help by a member of the public.
they can be. Eric was a firefighter
How many pios do you go through per month
New PIO Rig? Does not look like a truck....
it's a 2020 Ford Expedition
Looks like you have a new car Eric
I would hate to be the one having to test the airport fire engines and going 40 to 0 MPH
I Want 2 Trade Patches And My Version Of The Tiller W/Connor
