Management
The Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest has a variety of fire resources that respond when a wildfire breaks out on the Forest’s 6.3 million acres in Nevada and a small portion of eastern California. The resources consist of fifteen engines, one hotshot crew, one helicopter and helitack crew, and ten fire prevention patrols units.
The Forest’s fire personnel are part of a much larger group of agency cooperators that work together to accomplish fire suppression and management both on National Forest System lands and lands managed by our partners. Every summer, the Forest has approximately 175 firefighters that are highly trained in their respective fields and unique in how they contribute to the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest Fire and Aviation Program.
