Serving as a Fire Crew Member at WCCC means having passion for service to others, for wild lands and wild places, for personal growth, and for any number of WCCC’s values. Crews will camp for most of their term, oftentimes in remote locations in varied terrain and in all weather conditions. Primary service types will include habitat restoration and fuels mitigation with the potential for fire response and prescribed burning – with a heavy emphasis in chainsaw use.

Performs basic fire line activities such as line construction, lopping, and scattering of fuels using hand tools and holding, patrolling, monitoring burns, and more.

This position will be based out of our Grand Junction office. This is not a 9-5 job, rather an experience where long hours and extended time away from your home base are to be expected. Once the crew has been red card certified and are eligible for fire deployment, individuals from the FC will disperse onto traditional crews to be available for deployments.
