Hiring:
Summer Crew Member
We are a small, family owned canoe outfitting business located at the end of the Gunflint Trail, just outside the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. We are looking for a few outgoing, happy go lucky, energetic, hard working people to be a part of the Voyageur Crew. Our crew lives and works together for the duration of the summer, offering a unique opportunity to make lifelong friends! We fully believe in the philosophy of "Work Hard, Play Hard" and aim to keep that balance throughout the summer. Our summer crew members wear many hats, including driving tow boats, packing food and gear, cleaning cabins and canoes, and assisting customers in our store! During their days off, we encourage crew members to take advantage of their location and explore the BWCAW. Crew members get access to canoes and outfitting gear for their personal trips free of charge. You'll also find our crew spending nights after work sitting around a bonfire, going for hikes or moonlight paddle trips, or playing volleyball with staff from other outfitters on the trail.
We offer subsidized room and board which includes a private room in our staff housing unit and three meals a day. We have a minimum of a 10-week time commitment and 12 weeks is preferred. If this sounds like something you can do, then please return this application, with references and referrals. Please feel free to contact us by phone or e-mail with any questions you may have.
We would love to have you as part of the Voyageur Crew this summer!
