Ladder training in Lowell.

Today under the careful watch and great training guidance of Capt. Thomas M. McCullough crews from Lowell Fire Department conducted training at an abandon building.

Crews drilled on how to properly place and elevate; of lift; a ground ladder using only one guy. Capt. McCullough showed them how to bring the base of the ladder in tight to the building to prevent it from moving, then walking it up using the runs of the ladder.

The crew went through this evolution a couple time to ensure they understood the technic and could safe preform it.
