Welcome to Lefthand Fire Protection District


 daveslurry
Protecting residents living in the mountain rural foothills and mountain areas of west Boulder County Colorado for the last 25 years, Lefthand Fire Protection District is 52 square miles of rugged ridges, canyons and plains. Five subdivisions and several mountain neighborhoods make up this unique urban interface environment. There is also a significant part of our district that is used by many who recreate by a variety of modes.

We are a volunteer fire department of about 30 strong providing service to approximately 2000 residents. We train our members in structure firefighting, wildland firefighting, medical response, and rescue. A major highway and two steep canyon roads are the access for several outlying communities to the Front Range Urban corridor through the district.

Our mission is to provide the highest quality service to our residents.
