Angeles NF’s Dalton Hotshots are mobilizing to Redmond Oregon and will be responding to the rash of lightning caused fires in Oregon. The Dalton Hotshots formed in 1953, are one of four hotshot crews on the Angeles National Forest (Dalton, Little Tujunga, Bear Divide and Valyermo.) They adopted their name from the Big Dalton Canyon north of Glendora. Hotshot crews respond on a moment’s notice to fight fires throughout the USA, mobilized by the Southern California Geographic Area Coordination Center in nearby Riverside.

Tonight, I will be giving an unfiltered look inside our campaign, our messaging warfare, what happened with the Bloods and the Crips, the shady votes on Skid Row, and the next (even bigger) move for the campaign. Bring your questions and your popcorn. luma.com/the-6s5s
🌆 Thursday night, we're hosting Gabriel Mann [@Hotshot_Movie], Spencer Pratt's right hand Mann. Will be very good behind the scenes look at where the campaign succeeded and where it failed. Crucial to understand for urban politics from the right. Get your tickets in next tweet!
