The Silver City Hot Shots are a Type I national firefighting resource capable of traveling the U.S. from Hawaii and Alaska to countries like Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Canada. When this 20-person crew is not fighting fire it is available to help the nation in times of need such as 9/11, and the Columbia Space Shuttle recovery. During the winter months hot shots perform prescribed burns, work on thinning projects, build new trails, or other needed project work in the district.
