Need a Really Great Summer Job? Working on the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon?
Posted: December 4, 2015 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: Boatman, Colorado River Fish Project, Employment, Grand Canyon, Job Leave a commentHello, everyone,
I am writing to let you know that FWS is now accepting applications for 2016 summer boat operators. The announcement will be open through December 11, and the link to the announcement is listed below. Please pass this on to any rafting-oriented people who may be interested.
This year we will be conducting a lot of our work early in the season (April-May) and may be able to hire a commercial guide who wants to return to guiding as the summer season picks up. Have them get in touch with me to discuss the details.
I hope you’re having a good start to winter. Let’s hope the snows come for a good boating season.
Cheers,
Tildon

It is hard work with long days when on the river. It is for the Colorado Endangered Fish Recovery project and you will see some awesome canyons and learn a lot about the endangered fish. The heart of the program is a shocking operation to check on the progress of the fish. So you have to row the heavy boats down the edge of the river unlike normal river running. So if you know of someone forward this to them. If selected you have to get what is called a DUNS number and go through a complicated process to get paid as the government has changed the way it pays these salaries, but I did it, so with a little patience anyone else can do it.
