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.

Fish and Wildlife Service in Vernal – Looking For Whitewater Boatmen
Posted: January 12, 2013 Filed under: Whitewater Rafting | Tags: Boat, Employment, Fish, Rafting, Recreation, United States, United States Fish and Wildlife Service, Vernal, Vernal Utah, Whitewater Rafting Leave a commentFish & Wildlife Service – Vernal – Looking For Boatmen
The FWS offices in Vernal and Grand Junction are recruiting people for seasonal work operating boats for fish work. In particular, we are looking for folks with solid whitewater rafting skills who can operate heavy oar rafts. This job is not the same as our seasonal fish tech job, so it focuses on boat operation, although all staff will eventually be proficient on the fish end of things. The link for the announcement is below. The announcement will be open for 2 weeks, starting today.
If you know any boaters looking to have a long season, are maybe a little burned out on taking care of guests, or want to see what’s been living under their boat all these years, please pass this along. There may also be an opportunity for guides looking for early season work before they go to their guiding job for the summer. We really need people in April and May.

Good morning, below is a link to the Small Craft Operator announcement, which opened today on USA Jobs:
