I am currently hiring tree workers and climbers in Anchorage Alaska, we do approx 50/50 residential/commercial. pay ranges from $12hr for basic laborers with no experience to $20-$25/hr for climbers(additional pay for certs ISA and ACRT are both good). We work alot of hours and we always pay our overtime. 10 hour days are the norm and some saturdays, it is busy like this through the summer season. This is a great way to see Alaska and get paid. The trees are not very complex here it is mostly about prodution we have 3 main trees; spruce, cottonwood and birch with some aspen and orimentals. Speed is key, you must be a team player I am not looking for the worlds best climbers or people with DUI's, or looking to run away from convitions in the lower 48(been there done that), I have been in buisness over 10 years and have just about seen it all. If your to good to pick up sticks and help out your groundsman when the climbing is done I don't want you. You should have your own saddle and ropes(a sign of profesionalism), and must know top rope technique. If this sounds like something your into for a season my email is david@greatland################
BTW - most of the guys that come on with me work 5+ seasons!
