Welcome to the Baker River Hotshot website. The Baker
River Interagency Hotshot Crew is a highly-trained wildland fire
suppression crew that is hosted by the Region 6 Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National
Forest in Washington state.
The crew is comprised of a hard-working and diverse
group of individuals who spend their summers battling forest fires throughout
the country. As a Baker River Hotshot, crewmembers learn and practice
critical fireline skills that rely upon communication, team-building, and
high-reliability concepts. As a result, the organization provides an exciting and fulfilling
job for those fit enough for the challenge.
The Baker River IHC has a proud history, built on camaraderie,
strong work ethic, and mutual respect. While this website is meant as
an introduction to the crew, we hope it also reflects this history and
pride that continually attracts crewmembers to the job year after year.
