its depends on where u want to go
Just a quick question I would like to post here. Where do you'all think would be a good place to look for winter seasonal work? I have only been seasonal in summers - and then go back to the city and find a "permanent" job, only to wish I were sea...
i lived and worked in coldfoot in the summer of 2007 as a cook/kitchen lead... while i was there we lived in platform tents, 2 persons to a tent, with decent beds, i will say that for the short time i lived there" i was called home for a family em...
Hi my name is James and i have also recently applied for a job at coldfoot camp and was wondering if someone could tell me about it, that is of course if you have worked there before. I'm really just wondering how the living conditions are and wha...
Thanks. I kind of wondered if they were having a lot of returning employees as well. I think I have read that they have a high percentage of returning employees. I just think it was kind of odd for them to put all of that effort into contacting pe...
Same here, Andrea. I am also not too worried as I have a job right now on the Grand Canyon South Rim - I just want to see a new part of the country and Signal Mountain Lodge has such a good reputation on coolworks here, I wanted to experience a pl...

My adventure is starting!
Just wanted to post here quickly that my adventure is finally starting. I am typing this in the computer room of the Grand Canyon International Hostel in Flagstaff, Arizona, where I am spending the night. Tomorrow at eight am I catch a shuttle up to the Grand Canyon where I process through HR and get assigned housing etc and begin my adventure up by the big hole in the ground. So glad was I to get out of Phoenix this morning, as the shuttle starting climbing altitude as we left the Phoenix area,… Continue

really itching to hit the road.....
Today it is 9/13, the middle of September. The weather in Phoenix has dryed out a bit and cooled off and right around the corner, maybe about four weeks away, the temps will once again cool off to the point where many people would consider it nice to be here. Usually I am very happy to see this time of the year as it means things will pick up, the utility bills will go down, life will once again be more pleasant here. This year however - I JUST WANT OUT!!! Triggering this is the fact that two we… Continue

- Hi and thanks for the good wishes. It would be really cool to get out of the city for awhile, yes. I passed through Wickenburg about eight years ago but never spent any time there. Is there much going on there? A library, Internet access, that kind of thing? There is a city bus like you said from Arrowhead Mall into Wickenburg now - from Arrowhead Mall you can connect with other buses to (kind of) get around the Valley. Is there something you wanted to check out, maybe I could tell you how to get there.

- Los Cab is a pretty nice place. Hope you get it.
I'm over on the other side of town, in a bit more rustic and smaller ranch, the Kay El Bar. Have you ever taken the hour trip to Wickenburg? Sometimes on my big day off I grab the bus that goes to the Arrowhead Mall in Glendale, but other than the airport trips I really haven't seen much of Phoenix.
