Profile Information
- Hometown:
- in my motorhome, so I could be just about anywhere. Right now I am in Portland, Oregon
- About Me:
- I was a GTLC Employee and love Jackson's Hole. It a very special, if not, the most beautiful place in the world.
I am a 52 year old widdow. My family consists of 2 horses, 2 dogs and 3 cats. I love meeting new people and making friends.
I was a program director for an in-patient, intensive care, psychiatric program for a number of years before becoming a full time RVer. Now I have the luxury of being able to travel to wonderful places, such as Grand Teton National Park, which was my summer home in '07. Working there was sooo cool! I was a campground host at the Gros Ventre Campground. I am considering going back again this summer. I am also looking into other options.
I am an outdoorsy, earthy kind of person, who would rather be on horseback than in any mall anytime.
- Last Seasonal Job:
- Grand Teton Lodge Co., Moran, Wyoming

- Grand Teton National Park

there is a seasonal ranger aid open at Joseph, look on the OR state employment web page, also I sent you an email with some info. sue
So, thus, I am soliciting ideas. Thanks for your time and thoughts. Take care all! Kat
Got your email on your job search.
As I'm sure you know, Jackson Hole and the town of Jackson are expected to have a serious problem for the next decade with a worker shortage. I'd say you are in the driver's seat!
That being said, my side of the Tetons, Teton Valley, ID, is as good or better than the WY side for outdoor activity. Plus it is more affordable. Friends of mine just moved here with horses and they had no trouble finding a spot for them. The main employer on this side is Grand Targhee. Good resort, not without issues, but growing and paying well. Good group of people there.
Email me if you want more detail.
I also can't find your thread, I have a lot to learn I guess, I'm no help for a job, sorry, just want to offer my condolences, sorry to hear about the politics, I had hoped that I was leaving that when I started to work seasonally, darn it all and best wishes, sue
