This 16-unit campground and day use site is adjacent to Highway 191/189 and is enroute to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. The campground sits at and elevation of 7300' and is located directly on the Green River, providing excellent fishing and wildlife viewing opportunities. The campground is a first-come, first-serve site with picnic tables, fire rings, water hydrants, trash service, and a dump station.
Hosts volunteer five days a week, running from Memorial Day through Labor Day. The schedule is tailored to address high use periods, and therefore includes weekends and holidays. Two days off occur mid-week. Hosts must provide their own RV or camp trailer in which to live onsite. A RV pad will be provided with sewer and water hookup. We are looking for either an individual or a couple for this opportunity.
Campground hosts will need to work independently with little or no supervision. Work will be entirely outdoors. The campground and surrounding area will see variable weather conditions throughout the season, including lows in the 30s or 40s, sporadic rain or snow. High temperatures in the 70s and 80s. Work will be done at a high elevation.
Season: The week before Memorial Day weekend - the week after Labor Day weekend (16 weeks). Snow often limits access to the campground from mid-November through mid-May. If funding and weather allow, the host season can be extended beyond Labor Day in the fall (through September and into October) to assist with visitation during the hunting season.
Weekly Schedule: Thursday - Monday including holidays, off Tuesday & Wednesday; additional leave needs can be negotiated with recreation staff.

The Bureau of Land Management's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
The BLM manages 245 million acres of public lands and 700 million acres of mineral estate. These public lands and subsurface acres are integral to the lives and livelihoods of communities and families across the country. We promote multiple-use on public lands to maximize opportunities for commercial, recreational, and conservation activities. This promotes healthy and productive public lands that create jobs in local communities while supporting traditional land uses such as responsible energy development, timber harvesting, grazing, and recreation, including hunting and fishing.
