2011 Seasonal Job Info

A few things to keep in mind if you are interested in working on the Denali Trail Crew this coming summer:

We will be filling many positions this year, laborers, assistant crew leaders, and crew leaders.  All positions will be posted on USA Jobs, likely in January.  We recommend setting up an account with USAJobs that will notify you when the Denali jobs open.

Pay ranges from $17-$28 an hour.  We usually work Monday through Thursday, 10 hours per day.  Our season typically runs from mid-May to mid or late September.


Seasonal housing may be available for new employees, and some trail workers will be living at the Savage River campground in our temporary Trails Camp (see 2010 post below for details). 

Students are encouraged to apply through the Student Educational Employment Program.  Look here and here for more info.
