Firefighters from Boise, Meridian, and Eagle Fire Departments participated together to enhance technical rescue response capabilities. Training took place at Table Rock and at a training center tower, where crews practiced both low-angle and high-angle rescue techniques. The event aimed to strengthen cooperation among departments to improve safety in the region.
