On April 7th Bozeman will be the first community in Montana to host Dr. Paul Hessburg’s Era of Megafires presentation.  

The presentation is focused on community members and illustrated with examples from communities around the West similar to Gallatin County.

Patrick Lonergan, Gallatin County Emergency Manager explains, “This is a fortunate opportunity for our community to have Dr. Hessburg join us and I encourage everyone to attend.  If you have an interest in large wildfires, this is an opportunity to come learn alongside your local fire officials.”  

The presentation will be held from 4:00 pm- 5:30 pm at the Hilton Garden Inn. The event is free and open to the public.
