Twenty seven Alaska crews are deployed on western lower 48 wildfires. The teams are spread across California, Idaho, Montana and Washington, where as KUAC’s Dan Bross reports, they are facing very different conditions than they do in Alaska.
Dan has been in public radio news in Alaska since 1993. He’s worked as a reporter, newscaster and talk show host at stations in McGrath, Valdez and Fairbanks. Dan’s experience includes coverage of a wide range of topics, from wolf control to the Trans-Alaska Pipeline and dog mushing.
