History of the West Klickitat Regional Fire Authority

The White Salmon Fire Department has a long tradition of dedicated service to the communities of White Salmon and the surrounding areas. From its early beginnings as a volunteer fire group to its evolution into a modern, regional fire authority, the department has grown in capability and scope while maintaining its core mission: protecting lives, property, and the natural beauty of our region.

Over the years, hard-working firefighters and support personnel have faced everything from structural fires and vehicle accidents to wildland incidents and community emergencies, always with professionalism and heart. Their evolution reflects the changing needs of our community and a commitment to collaboration with neighboring districts.
