Area firefighters train with ‘fire tree’ in Mitchell

The flames shot high into the air, putting out heat that could be felt 30 feet from the “fire tree” they originated from.
But that didn’t discourage a team of area firefighters from slowly approaching the blaze with a running hose and fierce looks of determination.
The training event, held at the corner of 15th Avenue and the Highway 37 bypass on Saturday afternoon, was the final part of a firefighter certification course that began Jan. 21.
