Hank Stewart replied to Kelsey's discussion Old faithful Yellowstone"Kevin that's awesome! I can't wait to answer tourist questions! Some of my favorites..."Can you use Nightcrawlers during the day?" And "Is this coffee cake made with regular or decaf" I will be at Old Faithful tomorrow."
"@Kyle, are you working at the inn? @Kevin, thanks for the info!
@Rebecca, yeah some of the dorms are a bit of a walk, but those dorms are closest to our pub!"
Rebecca Blodgett replied to Kelsey's discussion Old faithful Yellowstone"I'll be working there this summer for the first time. Somewhere in my paperwork it said something about some of dorms being a 15 minute walk away from work. Some are closer, though."

"Hi Kevin,
I loved yellowstone so much, I'm actually going back next summer. The room and board and food are taken straight out of your paycheck, so you never see the money, which is nice so you don't spend it. You are able to save a lot…"
"Hi Kevin,
I worked in yellowstone this summer with xanterra. I think they were more concerned about hair than they were with piercings. There was a guy who worked in the giftshop with double 0 gauges, they said nothing to him and he worked with…"

They're Ariats.. idk got them from tractor supply like 5years ago lol. I'm sure you're checking a lot of sites already but the clymb has specials on boots every now and then, and the department of goods or cleansnipe may have some.. haven't checked for a while. Haha same here.. don't know a whole lot about hiking gear and tend to learn the hard way of going unprepared the first time lol. Guess the computer system they use for reservations is a lil tough or maybe just way outdated, just glad to be able to check out another area of the park.Yeah def! Stop by we'll have to go hiking and all that!

Lol for sure.. after looking at some prices i'm trying to be content with the boots I have. By the end of summer I may need some new ones though.. hoping to hike a lot!! And do all there is out there. Never been on an actual couple day backpacking trip so really wanting to do that too! May 19th I'll be at Mammoth for 10 days of training then to Canyon so you'll beat me there lol. One month to go!! :)
