Linden Fire District was founded in 1982, a small group of
local volunteers banded together to form a much needed
fire department. These dedicated volunteers protected the
small farms and ranches within the community.
Since that humble beginning, members of the Linden Fire
District have continually trained and prepared to respond to
serve their friends and neighbors when the emergency call
came. Neighbors helping neighbors was the founding
principal behind the formation of Linden Fire District and
it remains today.
Located in central Navajo County in the beautiful White
Mountains the Linden Fire District protects hundreds of
residents covering fifty-seven square miles of homes,
businesses, small farms and ranches surrounding the
Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest.
Our District consist of 11 full time
Firefighters, and 7 Reserves members that run 3 shifts of
forty-eight hours, providing Fire Prevention, Public
Education, Fire Suppression, Advanced Emergency Medical
services within the community.
Linden Fire District is proud to be a member of the White
Mountain Automatic Aid Consortium, within this group
Heber-Overgaard, Lakeside, Pinetop, Show Low, White Mountain
Lake, and White Mountain Apache Fire Departments together

available where the closest fire apparatus responds

each fire department works efficiently independent and

Helping Neighbors.
