Want a unique experience, in a secluded environment?  Join our seasonal, remote community in Denali National Park, Alaska for summer 2020!

A small, family-owned business since 1951, joining our operation means joining a tradition of educating visitors toward appreciation for the beauty of Denali National Park, and the importance of sustainable living.  Our seasonal jobs require an arrival date in late May of 2020, and extend through mid-September.  Employees are required to live on-site for the duration of the summer season, where room and board are provided at no cost.

Our mission statement: "To provide active learning experiences and foster stewardship of the natural world through a tradition of excellence, community and place."  

WORKING AT CAMP DENALI & NORTH FACE LODGE

Our remote location and commitment to stewardship require us to be a resourceful team. More often than not, we bake it, we sew it, we build it, we fix it, we grow it, and we recycle it. A sense of place grows from the earnest work of maintaining this enterprise, from the camaraderie and friendships that grow, and from our commitment to provide the best quality experience for our guests in a setting that is beyond compare.

Choosing to work at Camp Denali means embracing the small community that will be your home for four months of the year.  Our staff work collaboratively and share close living spaces and common rooms with one another and our bi-weekly turnover of guests.  We work hard, and take pride in our work.  The exceptional experience we offer to guests is the first and most important thread we have in common each season, but we find time amidst the long hours to play games of capture the flag, have jam sessions, watch movies, watch moose feeding from the pond in front of the dining hall, and so much more.  

Working with Camp Denali is an opportunity to connect with coworkers, of all ages and backgrounds, and to form a family.  We fill in for one another when we're sick, lend a hand to coworkers who are having a bad day, and share and teach one another our non-work related talents like playing music, carpentry, knitting, sewing, and dancing.  

Staff members at Camp Denali work 9-12 hours per day, five days each week to provide excellent service for our guests. Attention to the details of cleanliness and presentation are of paramount importance.  Fifty-one staff members live on-site to care for approximately seventy guests each day of our season. Every summer we hire 10-15 new-to-Camp-Denali staff.  

"Define Remote....":  Please note that our lodge is a 6 hour bus ride from the nearest restaurant, hotel, movie theater, store, or ATM.  Most of our staff choose not to leave our property for the duration of the summer, apart from hiking, biking, or canoeing adventures in the park.  There is no cell phone service, but we do have pay phones in public places available for use, as well as moderately reliable internet (at browsing, but not streaming or downloading speeds) in common spaces.
