In the summer of 2003, my wife and I went on a coach trip of the western National Parks. We were amazed to see that a good many of the summer jobs there were being done by young people from Eastern Europe. I can't believe that there are no young Americans that wouldn't KILL to spend a summer in the glory of Yellowstone or the Grand Tetons.

They could not be exploited so easily as they know the law and can defend themselves.

Granted it was a long time ago, but when I looked for a summer job, easy access to booze and women was more important than glorying in the setting's natural beauty.

If you couldn't find the job with the booze and women bennies, you looked for one that would pay, say like in construction.

I know someone who spent a Summer working in the kitchen at Yellowstone. It's not that great of an experience.
