I continue sharing videos from various wildfire crews summarizing their 2022 season. This video is from the Mad River Hotshots. According to this listing from the U.S. Forest Service of North Ops National Interagency Hotshot Crews, the Mad River International Hotshot Crew is based out of the Six Rivers National Forest, Mad River Ranger District in Mad River California. As I understand Hotshot Crews are a national resource so may be deployed anywhere in the United States. For example, as I write this the Mad River Hotshots are currently in South Carolina in the middle of a two week deployment in Greenwood South Carolina putting in control lines and cutting snags helping South Carolina as they prepare for their prescribed burning season, see this January 24th post from Six Rivers National Forest. Great photography and videography giving us a brief overview into what life was like on the Mad River Hotshot Crew last season and getting a glimpse into the camaraderie and teamwork of this crew. I enjoyed meeting each of the crew at the end of the video.
