Save Job

Overview Kantishna Roadhouse (KRH) is a full-service, backcountry lodge located 90 miles inside Denali National Park. Due to the Denali Park Road closure, the lodge is accessible only by small aircraft, and employees should expect a truly remote, wilderness-based work environment. Because of this remoteness, staff are expected to live on-site for the entire season (approximately June 1 to September 15) with no ability to leave the park on days off. Employees may enjoy hiking and exploring the surrounding backcountry during their free time, but travel outside the park is not available. KRH operates with a small, close-knit team and hosts a limited number of guests, so every staff member plays a vital, hands‑on role in daily lodge operations.

Room and board are provided at no cost to employees.

Job Summary Under the supervision of the Operations Manager, the Expeditor will provide safe, reliable, efficient, and prompt transportation of Kantishna Roadhouse guests, day‑trippers, and freight to and from Fairbanks, Denali Air, and other park entrance locations.
