In addition to his duties at work locations at National Forests (NF) throughout his career, Forest Ranger Kade Holley was sometimes given temporary assignments for various reasons. Many of these were related to assisting with forest fires in other states, including Montana, Minnesota, Colorado, and Michigan. These were, most often, two-weeks in duration. Other non-fire assignments, ranging anywhere from a week to sometimes longer, sent Kade to Kentucky, Nebraska, Canada, Connecticut, and other locations, including Chicago, of all places, where most foresters would not expect to spend a week as part of a federal review team. In this volume of the Forest Ranger series, Kade Holley spends time on temporary assignments at the Daniel Boone NF in Kentucky and the Seney National Wildlife Refuge in Michigan, as well as permanent locations at Ohio's Wayne NF and the Uwharrie NF in North Carolina.
