Thanks for visiting The Big Thompson Canyon Volunteer Fire Department
The Big Thompson Canyon V.F.D. is located in Drake, Colorado just 16 miles West of Loveland. We serve the communities of Drake, Waltonia, Cedar Park, Cedar Springs, and the Storm Mountain area.
Our district covers the area of the Big Thompson Canyon from West Loveland (County Road 29), through the canyon to mile marker 271½. Our organization has proudly provided Fire Protection and Emergency Medical Services to the communities of the Big Thompson Canyon and surrounding area since 1963.
As part of the Loveland Rural Fire Protection District, we work in coordination with Loveland Fire Rescue and Thompson Valley EMS to keep our area safe. As need requires, we also respond to mutual aid calls with Estes Park Fire Rescue, and the Glen Haven area Fire Department.
We are actively seeking volunteers to join us in providing emergency fire safety response to the Big Thompson Canyon. Please visit our Volunteer page for information.
