White Mountain

We are a State of Alaska Type 2 IA wildland fire crew based in Fairbanks, Alaska. We respond to wildland fires across the state and fires in the Lower 48. White Mountain operates for the State of Alaska Division of Forestry and Fire Protection (DOFFP) under the Department of Natural resources (DNR).

Our crew operates from April through October starting off with our Critical 80 in the middle of April. While we have Alaskans from around the state on our crew, we also have crew members who come from all over the United States.

The crew offers limited housing on base to those that need it, with many renting dry cabins around the greater Fairbanks area. Being located close to the University, we have laundry and stores within walking distance as well as several local restaurants.
