Today at 09.36 LFC and Royersford Fire Department were dispatched to 32.75 on the Schuylkill River Trail off Bridge Street for a reported tree on fire, ATV63 and Squad 63 responded shortly after dispatch followed by Traffic 63 along with Royersford Engine and Rescue 98, the location was unknown so ATV63 rode the trail looking for the source when crews staged in Hydromotion parking lot a subject reported to a member that it was in that area so ATV63 made their way back and went into service with the 1” Booster Line on a large tree that was burning, crews brought a chain saw down and started to cut up the tree to help with extinguishing it, Squad 63 relocated and used forestry hose to help with extinguishment. Crews were on location for about an 1-1/2 hours and returned. Good job to hold it from spreading through the wooded area.
