Re: Conair Bases
Alberta- No seasonal base and agency can and does move groups, on occasion, for no apparent reason.
Pincher Creek, Springbank, Rocky Mountain House, Edson, Whitecourt, Grand Prairie, Manning, Lac Labiche, Slave Lk, Ft MaC, High level, Grand Cache and mobile bases that may be set up at other suitable airports for short periods.
Yukon- Seasonal base is Whitehorse with deployments for sometimes days or weeks to Dawson City and less occasionally Watson Lake. Day base to Carmacks and Mayo also.
BC- Some changes year to year but seasonal basses assigned as of the last 5 years.
Ft St John(May-June)/Abbotsford(July-August), PrinceGeorge, Kamloops, Penticton. Other bases for reload or temporary reposition are Cranbrook, Castlegar, Campbell River, Williams Lk, Punzi Mtn, Smithers, Ft Nelson, Dease Lk.
Alaska- Fairbanks and Palmer.
Washington State- Mosses Lk

Where the fires are… lol.
There’s nothing more predictable than the unpredictability of fire fighting operations.
