The fire season for the Helena IHC begins early-May and extends to early October. Crewmembers must be able to commit themselves to this full time period. This is not a job to be taken lightly. It demands nothing but the best a person has to offer. We are a team and rely on every member to have a positive attitude and a dedication to the work we do.

See "How to Apply" for hiring information.
