Missoula, MT houses one of the Forest Service's six smoke jumper centers. It is also a museum to the fire fighters that do such great work in our forests. And, I was trained as one back in the summer of 1991. And yes, I wore the Nomex.
The dorm the smoke jumpers stay in when not out on a fire.

The room in which they pack the parachutes
What's in the cargo box that gets dropped to the smoke jumpers
