North Rim dorms are brand new! North side is alot quieter than the south, colder too. It's over an hour drive to the nearest grocery store. Last season they had an employee pub, but they were talking about getting rid of that.

HI, my husband and I got tentative offers for jobs with the National Park Service at the North Rim, we are waiting for a background check for it to be a done deal. We live in a travel trailer, they said we will have an RV site there. I am really looking forward to this job.

I know we have been told it is over an hour to the nearest grocery store, but is there a C store closer? Just wondering about that. Any info from someone who has worked there would be great.

We left the NR and travelled for a month together, then she went home and I went to work a Bryce for a month and then Zion which is where I'm at now. She's coming here this summer and we'l get married!!!! She wants to do it in Vegas and I want to do it at the NR so we'll see... Where are you headed for summer? Keep me posted... JG

I'm actually going back to the North Rim. I will start May 8th. They have me in the general store this time around. When I spoke with Mike Hobbs he said there going to do some things a little different then last season and hopefully it will alleviate some of the stupidity that was going on up there. He also said the edr will be open 24/7. Not the grill part, but there going to have sandwiches and snacks available for the whole night. there going to do something different with the housing also but what exactly I am not sure.

I hope all works out for you guys and get her to come on up to the NR to marry. take care and have a great summer.

Jon! You guys are getting married?? That is sweet! I am so happy for you! How random that you would have gone there to work for a summer and she would end up being the person who taught us opera hahahaha and then you end up falling in crazy love! I love it. So are you heading back to the nr for the summer or what?

I'm working front desk at the lodge this summer also. Looks like we'll be co-workers. Do you know any specifics about any of this?
