SteveCloudGately Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I wasn't sure where to post this thread so forgive me if this isn't the correct place. I am an inspiring guide so I'm looking to move to Seattle to climb as much as possible. After a trip up Silver Star Peak this past May I fell in love with the city and the Cascades. But I'm having trouble finding a job. Does anybody know if any of the local crag gyms or gear shops are hiring? I currently work as a trail crew supervisor building trails so if anyone knows of jobs pertaining to trail work that would work perfect. I know it's kind of vague but any help on jobs or people looking for room mates would be appreciated. Thanks guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eplanajr Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Don't know if any are hiring.. but it always seem the there's a revolving door for employees at those places... Right off the top of my head there is: Stone Gardens (Seattle) Vertical World (Several Locations all over the Puget Sound area) Edgeworks (Tacoma) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomtom Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 (edited) As as an 'aspiring' guide, you might consider contacting the local guide services. http://www.aai.cc/Employment/ http://mountainguides.com/employment.shtml http://www.alpineascents.com/contact.asp http://www.mountainmadness.com/contact/contact.cfm Also http://www.wta.org/about/job-opportunities Edited September 3, 2010 by tomtom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
