The City of Page is very remote. The closest city of any size is Flagstaff which is 135 miles to the south. The City of Page is located on a mesa surrounded by vast, rugged, and beautiful terrain with high cliffs, deep canyons, and extreme weather. The conditions make providing fire and EMS services an incredible challenge. Nearby Lake Powell extends for 180 miles up into the canyon lands of southern Utah and has over 1900 miles of shoreline.
With breathtaking scenery, national parks, and monuments in virtually every direction, the Page area is a popular tourist destination. In fact, nearly three million tourists from all over the world visit the area every year.
Because of the extreme distances, it is not uncommon for Page Fire Department units to provide mutual aide assistance as far as fifty miles away including areas of southern Utah and the Navajo Nation. Page's remoteness also means that having good working relationships with the other fire and EMS agencies in the area is vitally important. Page Fire Department personnel routinely work with the National Park Service (NPS), Big Water (Utah), and Greenehaven (Arizona) Fire Departments and the Navajo Generating Station (power plant) Fire Brigade. The local air ambulance service, Classic Lifeguard, is second to none. Classic Lifeguard operates two medical helicopters from its facility at the Page Municipal Airport.
