COME SERVE WITH US!

Cowlitz-Skamania Fire District #7 is a small rural Fire District. The Fire Chief is the only paid position. The remainder of the staff, consisting of Firefighters, EMTs and Paramedics, are all volunteer. We are located in southwest Washington State, in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. Our district is on the north side of the Lewis River and its three heavily used recreational lakes. The lakes are each approximately 14 miles long. We are responsible for 54 square miles along the river, two of the lakes, and a small portion of the third. We respond as Mutual Aid on another 100 square miles with neighboring districts.
