My Yellowstone Working Experience | Seasonal Work Series

Video 2 in my sit-down series of me talking about my experiences doing seasonal work in our National Parks. In this video, I talk a little bit about my time working at Yellowstone National Park in 2019. It was overall an awesome experience, but there were some downs to it for sure. I still recommend anyone to do seasonal work, however, and Yellowstone is a great place to start. Make sure to check out my "Seasonal Work Series" playlist for other videos of me sharing my experiences and giving advice!

    Can you talk about pay? Like did you get to save up all your money? How big (on average ) were your paychecks? How much money did you bring home? Did you get a ride to the airport to go back home?

    I worked there in 2019, so some of it may have changed but...I made about $10.10 an hour. I was in college at the time and wasn't really making money and didn't have many expenses, so that to me was good at the time. I can't remember how much my paychecks were, but I believe we also paid $162 for room and board, so that got taken out. I had a car so I didn't have to get to the airport, but I know a lot of people will hitchhike or get rides from their co-workers

    Would highly recommend! Super fun experience. Location depends on what experience you're looking for. If you're thinking Yellowstone - Old Faithful, Grand Canyon and Mammoth are the busiest. I liked where I was at Grant Village though. It was more chill and close to the Tetons (my other fav park)

    Hi! I will be there in may, did you have any issues making friends or finding people to hike with? I’m a little nervous about it but really exited!

    No not at all! Everyone is kind of in the same mindset. They’re all coming and not knowing people, so they’re pretty down to make friends and hang out. Plus Yellowstone has an employee recreation program and that can be another way to make friends!
