The Bonneville Hotshots of Utah will arrive at the #ParadiseComplex today to replace the BLM Alaska Fire Service Chena Hotshots who are demobilizing. The Chena Hotshot crew worked for 21 consecutive days and fly back to Fairbanks for a few rest days. The Type 2 BLM AFS North Star Fire Crew, who have been working with the Chena Hotshots, will fly back on Tuesday to begin their rest days. Both crews have been preparing fire breaks and setting up hose and pumps to protect structures and Native allotments near Lake Minchumina.
