The Grande Ronde Rappel Crew

​The Grande Ronde Rappellers are a 40-person crew of highly trained aerially-delivered firefighters sponsored by the U.S. Forest Service's Wallowa-Whitman National Forest and based in La Grande, Oregon. Previously the Sled Springs and Blue Mountain rappel crews, we have been delivering firefighters via rope and helicopter since 1992. We share responsibility for initial attack on the Wallowa-Whitman and Umatilla National Forests, including several wilderness areas, and are available nationally for large fire support and initial attack preposition. If you're interested in learning more about what it takes to become a member of our crew, please see our employment page.
