Early Monday morning NSFD responded to a crash on WB I-80 in Echo Canyon near MM 182. Multiple vehicles were involved, including this tanker, which was hauling jet fuel. The fuel did spill and required clean up. No one was injured in the accident. #EchoCanyon #Echo #NorthSummit
Just after 9:30 am NSFD and Summit County EMS responded to a single vehicle rollover on EB I-80 at MM 187 for a single vehicle accident. No one was injured. The roads are slick out there today. Slow down and give yourself extra time.

Utah Fire Management Officer Brett Ostler and Utah State Forester Brian Cottam Sign Proclamation of End to 2020 Closed Fire Season; Previously Extended Season to End at Midnight on Friday, November 13, 2020. #utah #wildfireseason
Last night North Summit firefighters assisted South Summit Fire on a fire in Weber Canyon, near Oakley. We took 2 brush trucks and 1 water tender. The fire started around 10:45 PM; cause is a suspected down power line but under investigation. Initial reports were 75 acres burned.
Today we said goodbye to our friend, our colleague, our brother - Alan Powell. Powell died last month after being injured in an off duty accident. We wish to thank Wasatch County, South Summit and Mountain Green Fire Districts for joining us in today's events.
"...Powell was instrumental in helping to build the fire station in the Tollgate Canyon area off I-80... {he} was certified in wildland and structure fires as well as emergency response."

The North Summit Fire District has lost one of its own in a tragic off duty accident. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family during this time. Until our friend is laid to rest the @NorthSummitFire fire stations will fly our flags at half-staff. Rest In Peace Brother.
At 12:01 am this morning fire restrictions went into effect in Summit County and Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. Read the Orders here: utahfireinfo.gov/fire-restri…
7:20 PM UPDATE: After measuring the perimeter firefighters report the total acres burned is 8.66.
The fire is now contained. A total of 4.5 acres burned; no structures were threatened. Cause of fire is related to heavy machinery hitting against some rocks. Our NSFD firefighters quickly responded, along with @PCFireDistrict, Utah State Forestry Fire and our County Fire Warden.

#TBT of I-80 / U.S. 189 between Park City and Wanship in the 1960s. The first group of pioneers in 1847 followed a route north of here, heading west from Echo Canyon to Henefer (the route followed by I-84), & then south (the route that S.R. 65 follows now) to Emigration Canyon.
