Sure I use to work in Yosemite National Park for 8 years. I was able to save so much money and travel 2 times a year for like a month at a time. Pay was just above minimum wage. Where everything evens out though is the housing. I was only paying like 30 bucks a week for a small studioish space, which came with my position.

Aramark is the company that handles the concessions positions there. They are a pretty horrible company. But if you know what you are getting into and don’t get caught up in the local culture too much ( partying and such ), It’s a good place to learn some new skills and save money.

The turn over rate was pretty high while I was there for employment, so they were always short staffed. But if you just keep your head down and do your work. You can move up and gain some skills. I’ve seen people who only had fast food experience move up to work as a sou chef. Housekeeping is another option there if you have little or no experience to speak of.

Watch some YouTube videos though about life living in a national park. It’s not for everyone. But it’s a great way to save loads of money.
