Two types of training Tuesday night at the school.

One group was practicing making a hydrant connection. When I took this picture, they seemed more interested in the goings-on with the ladder.

The other group practiced moving the ladder and positioning it near a building.

This gauge is free-swinging, and tells the operator the degree of angle of the ladder and more.

They did not set the ladder ON the building, but close enough for simulation. Note the new sign on the ladder.
