This is a VERY remote, isolated location. There is no "getting out" during the winter. The only civilization within travel range is the little village of Levelock, 25 miles downriver. Travel to the village is only possible when the river is safe, either via boat or snowmobile when frozen. This job is very much a mental exercise in 8 months of being pretty much alone.
We are looking for someone who is a non-smoker and has basic mechanic skills. Should have experience with snow machines, generators, chainsaws, and cold climates.
