In the photo, you can see the team who will compete in the 33rd Annual Firefighter Stair Climb at the Columbia Tower in Seattle on Sunday. IAFF Local 469 says they will climb 69 floors in their full gear and on air, totaling more than 13-hundred steps. The challenge helps raise money for the leukemia and lymphoma society. They've raised over 25 million dollars over 33 years, with more than 1.5 million being raised this year. The six members are John Ryan, Hunter Hintze, Nicholas Holly, Dylan Hudson, Will James, and Nick Sloan. Yakima County Fire District Number Five's Vanessa Loera will also participate in the stair climb.
