I'm a Park Ranger in California. Thanks for the video!

Awesome job and keep up the 👍 good work to man. The world needs more people in it like you to.

Hey Danny just wanted to give you A shot out to for what you're doing out there in the forestry and explaining the types of jobs and requirements.,an etc. like this to.

I’m turning 28 and don’t have a HSD but working on my GED. I don’t have a criminal background and just wondering is there a possibility for a job like these for someone like me? And I’m sure some have it worse, I’m just wondering!!

Since 1975 the USFS has been the Gov't leader in DEI hiring and promotion above all else.

Got my acceptance letter from them I'm going to Sacramento can't wait, sadly i start this October i wish it be sooner but either way I'm excited

Thank you for sharing. Loved the added humor.

um excuse me, you forgot a couple states in your maps. alaska should be its own country at this point lol

Is 34 to old to get into soil conservation?

When you say no degree, what exactly do you mean? I have a degree, but it’s not relevant to anything to do with the national park service.

Dude thank you so much. This is one of the most informative videos I’ve came across for learning about rangers. Thank you again man

I was a seasonal park aid for 7 years, could never become a ranger because of the rampant nepotism practiced in hiring. Yes they are government jobs that are technically required to interview everyone for EEO reasons BUT rangers almost always hire new rangers from inside employees of the park system not outside AND its very cliquey, if you are not a favorite seasonal pet of a ranger that already works there you can forget ever getting hired. Parks only hire rangers pet seasonals for permenant jobs, if you are a bit different than most people already working there you can forget it

False I pulled out over 12 radishes from a 6 inch pot

This video is truly a true Gem. I did an Internship with Fish and Wildlife and now I’m looking into being a ranger. Wish me luck

I one someone wearing this out hiking I’m calling the actual rangers immediately

Are these jobs available for foreigners?

I would add: Research the opportunities coming from the American Conservation Experience. It is geared towards young people with an interest in everything he explained, and could help further develop your (future) career!

This is really dangerous but cool

Not enough $, I quit and started working for utilities instead of fighting fire.

Most of the seasonal employees I worked with got red cards to earn extra money. Anyone else out there float turds?

Alligator lizard!

Omg thank you for the insight of what it is like to be in NRM!

Ive been thinking about a career change from the automotive industry this has been very helpful

Thanks!!

Are non-Americans allowed to do this work?

Thank you for the wonderful video. I just subscribed 🎉🎉🎉❤

I’m so interested 😮

I'm in a career switch and torn between which ranger path to take. Are there any resources who can help advise that?

Hey Dan, Did you go to Paul Smiths?

I'd work as. A rander 4free just 2b in nature'

What if I have no degree but I’m a consultant/incident manager for Operations for a major bank, I have a love for the forests in Arizona and on the weekends I go through and clean the camps sites and forest roads unpaid. I’d like to get into the industry

Hey idk if youll see this but im a 24 year old dishwasher who's trying to find a way into forestry. Idk what im doing and while this video was helpful for deciding which path to take, im having trouble looking for jobs that im qualified for. Im technically qualified for GS 2 (havent been to college) but there aren't any jobs that have that as a minimum requirement. What are your recommendations?

Fantastic video, thank you much man

Who in the actual unholy fuck would want to get into this type of work to be a guide or interact with the crazies, I mean public? I want to walk/hike 20+ miles a day and listen to audiobooks in the middle of nowhere, hope I'm not delusional.

Graduating with my masters soon. Thank you so much for the info, it’s very motivating! Job searching is daunting but I don’t want to give up on my dream of doing impactful work for the environment.

The fire jobs pay as much or less than the other jobs. The difference is number of hours. You also get 25% hazard pay if you are on an active fire. You could get 100 hrs in a week. If you’re a hotshot, you could go from fire to fire all summer+. If you are on an engine crew you could be pounding the ground 24hrs before going to 12 on/ off. Most fires are fought with shovels ( at least 25+ yrs ago).

Hey guy, long time no post! I appreciate everybody for being so encouraging on doing stuff still. I love making videos and am going to try to find my groove as time goes on, I'm planning on starting broad on topics and grinding till I find my lane once again.

Thoughts on Penn Foster's career diploma program in wildlife forestry conservation? It's fully online.

Apperently no education is required. th-cam.com/video/KBQ1KGUuSW8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xWgyQEPJYd1tcfwQ

I’m going to be moving to Colorado so I most certainly want to work in the nature. I’m definitely considering any position to start off with I’m so excited. ❤

Isn't it widely acknowledged that the Clove Hitch is secure only when both ends are under tension? The scenario involving the dumbbell was successful, yes, but it didn't seem secure, as one of the ends was not under tension. That appeared dangerous. Conversely, in the scenario with the shoes, both ends were equally tensioned by the weight of the shoes, making it a proper use case.

Thankyou super helpful

State of New Mexico law enforcement ranger (boating) here. Tired of dealing with crazy mental people squatting in parks and crackheads. Trying to get out of enforcement and into forest management. Cant wait. Law enforcement gets old.

I am currently in college and finally got the courage to switch my major to biology with a minor in environmental science and concentration in ecology, evolution, and marine biology. I grew up in a national forest cause my grandparents worked as a private park rangers for a campground. These videos really help me understand and plan how to get it involved in this line of work that I have always loved but never thought I could do. So thank you!

Man I loved this video! I'm graduating with a Bachelor's in Natural Resource Tourism in 3 months and have no clue what to do! Gave me some great insight!
