Utah

So I have been in Utah for about 3 weeks, it's hot sunny and full of desert. But apparently they have a lot of dry lightning storms here. I am going to be in classes for the next month or so, taking a lot of classes that will make me very eligible for Hotshot crews come next season. I have also been emailing and calling a lot of Hotshot Superintendents to see what my chances are for next year. And so far all have said that I have a really good chance at making it next year. I also may be detailing with the Cedar City Hotshots when fire season winds down here. Possibly getting to work fires outside of Utah and Arizona!

BLM Helitack!

I just got a job with the US Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management in St.George Utah on a Helitack crew, which is a crew that supports and is in charge of a helicopter in wildland fire situations. More updates about the job as I get them!
