About this listen
Heather Hunt was four years old when a wildfire tragedy struck her family. The trauma of that event eventually created an overwhelming desire in her to become a firefighter. After her applications to the US Forest Service in Idaho and Washington State were rejected because she was a woman, she found her way to Fairbanks, Alaska where she joined the first all-women’s wildfire fighting crew.
Jack Duncan came from a family with a long tradition of working in the US Forest Service. After struggling through the grueling smokejumper training in Missoula, Montana, he became the sector boss for the Heather’s first fire in Alaska.
The dramatic events of that summer in the early 1970s changed the face of wildfire fighting forever and set Heather and Jack on a collision course with destiny.
