- Video 2 in my sit-down series of me talking about my experiences doing seasonal work in our National Parks. In this video, I talk a little bit about my time working at Yellowstone National Park in 2019. It was overall an awesome experience, but there were some downs to it for sure. I still recommend anyone to do seasonal work, however, and Yellowstone is a great place to start. Make sure to check out my "Seasonal Work Series" playlist for other videos of me sharing my experiences and giving advice!

Love hearing your stories, thanks Taylor
Thank you!
I worked at Grant Village from August 27-@September 30, then I worked at Canyon Village until October 15th. I was a Server Assistant. You must have left right before I got there. I loved my time there.
Yeah it was awesome! Glad you had a good experience too :)
I will be there in May
Awesome! Excited for you! Best of luck
I go April 18

Enjoyed hearing your story.
Thank you!
Will , will be there in may. Yellowstone or bust
Best of luck!
Can you talk about pay? Like did you get to save up all your money? How big (on average ) were your paychecks? How much money did you bring home? Did you get a ride to the airport to go back home?
I worked there in 2019, so some of it may have changed but...I made about $10.10 an hour. I was in college at the time and wasn't really making money and didn't have many expenses, so that to me was good at the time. I can't remember how much my paychecks were, but I believe we also paid $162 for room and board, so that got taken out. I had a car so I didn't have to get to the airport, but I know a lot of people will hitchhike or get rides from their co-workers
Hi! I will be there in may, did you have any issues making friends or finding people to hike with? I’m a little nervous about it but really exited!
No not at all! Everyone is kind of in the same mindset. They’re all coming and not knowing people, so they’re pretty down to make friends and hang out. Plus Yellowstone has an employee recreation program and that can be another way to make friends!
Hey will here, chill bro, friends will find you. See you in may
Do RC’s get their own rooms?
I don't remember, but if I had to guess, probably so or you'd maybe room with another RC
Thanks for sharing your experience! I'm thinking about doing seasonal work next year but there are so many locations. What microphone are you using?
Honestly can't remember what it's called, but it was a cheap one from Amazon that is compatible with iPhones
Would highly recommend! Super fun experience. Location depends on what experience you're looking for. If you're thinking Yellowstone - Old Faithful, Grand Canyon and Mammoth are the busiest. I liked where I was at Grant Village though. It was more chill and close to the Tetons (my other fav park)
I'm 44 and with that being said, is this a good thing for me to experience or is this just for younger people.
Give it a try! I've worked with plenty of people in their 40s and older. I'd say the crowd is usually younger, but you can still find various ages for sure
Did you have a physical to work for kitchen crew?
No. I worked there in 2019 so things may have changed, but I don't think they'll require that
Can you quit at any time
Duh nobody can force you to keep working 😂
