Members of the Teton Interagency Helitack crew were recently recognized for outstanding service for their response during the Big Swamp Fire Tree Strike Incident last year in Region 6. They were presented with a plaque by Alex Robertson the Fire Director for Regions 6 and 10 and his staff. Crewmembers Kenny Heidenreich, Evan Gerry, Kira Gilman, Jeremy Schuler and pilot Chris Templeton provided outstanding work in answering the call that day.
