Backpacking type jobs????
    #16160017 - 04/30/12 12:11 PM (11 years, 8 months ago)

So let me get this straight. There is something called the "Conservation Corps" or something similar that will take you out for months at a time, backpacking, in exchange for trail labor and upkeep while providing you with a salary and health insurance?


Am I missing the bad side here? Someone please fill me in. Anyone have any links to jobs like this.

Look into tree planting I'm sure somebody here has done it or knows more about it, but it seems kind of cool if you can get in.

It's not especially hard to find a company that will hire you with no experience. It can be good money once you learn how to do it, but while you're just starting out you can expect to make very little. A lot of it is balancing time spent and effort expended per tree against quality requirements. Short spacing makes you more money because you're walking less per tree, but if it's too short they can make you replant. If you're not careful about your technique you can give yourself repetitive strain injuries, so watch out for that. You also need to keep good records to make sure you get paid for what you did, some companies will try to screw you.
