    The North Cascades Smokejumper Base is known as the birthplace of modern smokejumping. Operating since the 1940s, this base still trains elite firefighters who parachute into remote wilderness areas to fight wildfires. Visitors can take guided tours that walk you through the parachute loft, training towers, gear rooms, and aircraft area, and see how smokejumpers prepare for rapid-response fire missions.
