We will assume that this fire station has an affiliation with EMS services, as, interestingly, there is a helipad in front of the station. Having three overhead doors, we must assume that either there are three fire engines within or two and an ambulance. We tend to lean toward the latter.

The helipad is essentially on Hungry Horse Boulevard, meaning that either traffic control would be a good idea when a helicopter arrives and/or that drivers and pilots must exercise extreme caution.
