Dive Team Under Water Ice Training – John’s Pond - February 22, 2025

Our CFD Divers conducted underwater ice dives this past weekend. Diving under the ice is extremely dangerous, but our Dive Team must be proficient in their skills if needed to rescue someone who has fallen below the ice. All safety precautions are in place for these technical dives. Divers utilize safety ropes, underwater communications systems, and full face masks. A rescue diver is always at the ready to assist if something goes wrong while the diver is under the ice. (Photo’s by Future CFD Firefighter, Matt Heath)
