On Thursday night, Clackamas Firefighter Izak Hamilton received a historic message on his cellphone. It told him Clackamas firefighters were responding to a report of a commercial fire on Timberline Road. “When I heard that I thought of some words I can’t say out loud,” said Hamilton, 47, who has been with the department for a decade. “That lodge is part of Oregon’s history.” Hamilton left his home in a department-issued vehicle, traveling with family memories and his awareness of what fire could do to the grand wooden structure. “I just wanted the fire stopped,” he said. “We needed to save one of the symbols of who we are in Oregon.” Click the link in our bio to read more Photo courtesy of Clackamas Fire #Oregon #TimberlineLodge #Firefighters #Timberline
