Wildfire Operations



This page gives you a brief look into how wildfire operations are carried out in the Northwest Territories. The links to the left lead to information about how fires are detected and fought, what kind of resources (human and equipment) are employed, where resources are located and what kind of strategies and tactics are used to combat fire.

Anyone considering a career in forest management will find these pages of interest - from Fire Crew Member to Air Attack Officer; all of these positions require training and certification.

Check out the career pages in the Forest Education section in the near future - we will have descriptions about Wildfire Operations and other Forest Management careers.

Please contact us if you are interested in further information about Wildfire Operations.
