Pack company Mystery Ranch has hired Luke Mayfield as the company’s fire program manager. In this position, he will lead Mystery Ranch’s ongoing efforts to provide the fire community with purpose-built, fire-specific packs.
Mayfield hails from Medford, OR, where he was assistant hotshot superintendent. Prior to that, he spent 18 seasons with the U.S. Forest Service and 12 seasons with multiple Hotshot crews, including Zig Zag Hotshots, Silver City Hotshots, and Rogue River Hotshots.
“I’m most excited to assist in supplying the world’s best load-bearing equipment available to the people that deserve it, all while staying relevant and active in the fire community,” Mayfield said.
Since the launch of Mystery Ranch’s fire-specific product line, the Bozeman, MT-based company has seen tremendous sales and feedback coming from this category and Mayfield will take the lead on bringing these packs from development to the firelines.
