Season & Schedule

Snowmaking is dependent on weather conditions, which means flexibility is key—we make snow when Mother Nature allows. Shifts may be extended, or start times adjusted, with little notice. This is an hourly, non-exempt position reporting to the Snowmaking Supervisor, Director of Environmental Operations, and Director of Environmental Management.

• Able to walk steep, variable terrain safely and confidently
• Able to lift 10–100 lbs on a regular basis
• Comfortable with heights and able to ride a chairlift
