It won’t be long and I’ll post the older Summit apparatus photos. Those will bring back your memories.

Ahhh, I have fond memories of Summit FD. My father owned a business in Summit and every day we would go to his office he’d swing me by the station and I’d climb around for hours on their apparatus. Good times.
