Please find attached the Fall 2017 Klamath River Prescribed Fire Training Exchange (TREX) announcement with details about the online application process, training requirements, and much more. We are excited to carry on this grassroots effort to bring good fire back to the Western Klamath Mountains through creating co-ownership of fire on our landscape.
Dates are currently set for October 2-15, 2016, with incident management staff showing up on September 30. Applications are due August 15th.
This year we will be based in Orleans, CA, with a large spike camp in Happy Camp and some burning down the Klamath River corridor to Weitchpec and on the Salmon River.
In addition to providing training opportunities for firefighters and firelighters, we also have planning and support roles in our Type III Incident Management Team that do not require fireline qualifications. We are also still looking for a Logistics Section Chief and Safety Officer.
