Here is a link to some Modoc NF frequencies (site is old and may be outdated):

Mendocino's frequency is listed here:

Let us know if you get anything on those frequencies so we can add them to the database.
Good luck.

The Modoc National Forest channel plan has now been submitted. It is in the top sticky thread if you wish to see it right now.
Shannon, thanks for bringing this to my attention. I submitted it about a year ago, but somehow it did not make it onto the database.

I just took a look at the National Park Service page on the California portion of the database. Everything is there except for Joshua Tree National Park and Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Golden Gate uses a trunked system and I don't have very good information about it. I will submit information for Joshua Tree in the next few days. My information for that Joshua Tree is not as complete as most of the others, but I will submit what I have.
Do remember Shannon, that most National Monuments are administered by the National Park Service. There are a few administered by the Forest Service, two of which are in Alaska and one (Giant Sequoia National Monument) in California, which is part of the Sequoia National Forest, not to be confused with Sequoia National Park. The Bureau of Land Management administers quite a few National Monuments, mostly in Alaska, Arizona, Utah, and Montana. As for National Recreation Areas the USFS, NPS, and the BLM all administer quite a few of these. Probably the Forest Service's premiere NRA in the west is the Sawtooth NRA north of Ketchum, Idaho.
I really should start a BLM section in the California database.
I'm not aware of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service having any National Monuments or National Recreation Areas to administer. That is because National Wildlife Refuges have a primary purpose that does not rank recreation as primary. My information for the USFWS is very skectchy, but maybe I should submit what I have for them, creating a new catagory under the federal section for California.
This leaves the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the last fire and land management/natural resource agency in the federal government. The available information for the BIA in California is almost non-existant, not like Arizona where every reservation is listed in numerous publications. Many of the reservations in California are very small and many of them contract their fire protection to CDF. None the less, it is probably a good idea
Smokey,
I know that Hoopa reservation up in Humboldt has their own FD (BIA or not I don't know, but I THINK it is. I've seen their engines on fires in the last few years).
Mooretown Rancheria in Oroville also has their own fire department (they have a casino), but I don't know if it is BIA or not (sad...they are in my own work area, and I know almost nothing about them). Do Native American departments affiliated with the rancherias or reservations HAVE to be BIA, or can they be local-government like any other volunteer or combination company?
United Auburn Indians contract with CDF-NEU for a station at their casino in Lincoln. They staff two engines 24/7, one of them ALS. They also staff a Type 3 engine in the summer and just bought a ladder truck for the station due to a huge hotel they are building.
That's the extent of my knowledge about the Native American fire service in California, but there are several large (for reservation) departments in So Cal (San Miguel, Pechanga, San Manuel are just three that come to mind) that are Native American.

I don't really have a definitive answer for you Duster, but here is what I've found online:
Forestry- Hoopa Valley Tribe
Hoopa has both a volunteer FD and a "wildland fire department." I'm unclear if they are separate entities. The website makes it sound as if the tribal council assumed the duties of wildland suppression, taking them from BIA. They may be in a very unique situation in regard to their wildland fire suppression, running their own small department of forestry.

Nope, they don't have to be BIA. Rumsey Rancheria over here in Yolo has their own fire department, part of the tribal government, just like a municipal fire department is part of a city government. They've signed up with the county auto aid agreement, and the standard mutual aid agreements.
