Shutdown pay funding update for the USFS and DOI. DOI has a longer runway of funding for wildfire resources, and the USFS is looking for a funding extension.
We have reached the important date for the unification planning phase of the new USWFS, and the search for the new National USWFS Chief continues.
Updates on all of those things.
Time to check in on yourself and others after a long season.
The crazy story behind the Ninetyeight Fire Incident. Hotshots thrown from boats, broken pelvis, ribs, punctured organs, people impaled and tossed in rivers, all while in the Alaska wilderness.
A story that reads like a Hollywood movie.
