[pct-l] Off Season Jobs

[Ryan Christensen]

Drake,

I do have a good tip on how to have the summers off: Death Valley. The fall/winter/early spring season is the prime time for Death Valley National Park visitation. The best jobs are with the National Park directly, and they are posted on www.usajobs.opm.gov but they are hard to get. A couple of months ago I saw a winter seasonal job for wilderness patrol, sounded AMAZING! The other options in Death Valley are to work for the concession-

Good Luck!

Hello All,



During my time on the PCT I have run into numerous repeat thru-hikers. I am
curious if anyone on this list falls into that category and if so what kind
of job(s) do you work in the PCT off season (October-March) to help fund
your thru-hikes? My thru hiking experience turned out to be extremely
addictive and I can see myself attempting multiple thru-hikes in the future
but doing that in my area of work is the equivalent of committing career
suicide so I am looking for other careers that are more "PCT thru-hike"
friendly.



Thanks,

Drake
