John Day Airbase

Home sweet home

A state of the art airport facility-constructed in 2009-allows us to work, train and fight fire together without all the clutter.
An in house weight room, saw shop and dedicated sewing room allow us to prepare for each fire season in comfort and style.
Operations are conducted with a birds-eye view of the John Day Helibase reducing the potential chaos of hosting yearly Type 1 helibases in support of large fires throughout northeastern Oregon.
On site locker room, showers and kitchen provide comfort for those long shifts.
