The National Interagency Fire Center

The National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC), formerly know at the Boise Interagency Fire Center (BIFC) is a federal facility.  NIFC's purpose is to coordinate wildland fire training, strategy, communication, crews, supplies and equipment.

I think it is an amazing facility.  The folks I met there were helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.  Depending on the time of the year, anywhere from 500- 750 people are employed there.

If you want to see the blog in the order that I toured the facility, then scroll to the bottom of the blog archive (at right), go down to the Entrance Station post and work your way up.  If that doesn't matter to you, then just scroll down from here.

Remember that you can enlarge the photos by clicking on them.
