“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.

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
