Details

“Wildland fires are a force of nature that can be nearly as impossible to prevent, and as difficult to control, as hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods.” -Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Idaho's landscape has been shaped by fire, whether human-made or natural. Hear from professionals about the impact of wildfires in Idaho and how they work to prevent, slow, and stop them.

Panelists this month include;

Jared Jablonski – Wildland Fire Mitigation and Education Specialist for the Boise District Bureau of Land Management
Burk Minor - Co-founder of the Wildland Firefighter Foundation

You can participate in the conversation through the audience Q&A by emailing questions to events@ishs.idaho.gov or submitting them live during the event in the chat bar.
