I have so far received job offers for this summer in 4 national parks... I’m not here to brag about it, as I am staying put, but where would you go?

The job is the same at each park.
Pay varies by a dollar or two an hour.

Glacier (western side)
Acadia
Zion
Rocky Mountain (Grand Lake area)

Without public parks, criminals would have to deal drugs on private property

Glacier no doubt. By far the most majestic out of those listed.

Glacier. St. Mary's is beautiful, but there is a lot of methed out and drunken natives.

Zion for the big wall sandstone climbing. Some of my favorite crack climbing and sandstone isn't as hard on the hands as granite.

So you're not making a decision between these 4, but just wanted to start a thread letting everyone know your options and see what they would do in your shoes?

Yeah, not here to brag about it at all.

Are you with the Park Service itself, or one of the vendors?

Browning, MT is one of the most depressing places I've ever seen. Didn't seem to be bad on the west side of the park, though.

Out of those four, Glacier. But try to get to any pf the Alaska parks. It's a different world up there.

Acadia would be my first choice, but Glacier would be a close second. In my time off, I could search for the hidden nazi train cars and Hitler's secret treasure. It'd be fun.

Looks like Hitler got his hands on an IPhone in 1997.
