Start Date: TBD, but somewhere in the window of May 16th to May 30, 2024
Duration: The field season is active from May through November. We encourage anyone with any availability within this window to apply, however, priority will be given to candidates with greater availability.

We are currently seeking traveling team members for our stream restoration crews! The Utah and Idaho restoration crews will be traveling in teams of 5-10 people building and monitoring low-tech process-based restoration (LTPBR) structures. These structures will include Beaver Dam Analogs and Post-Assisted Log Structures. Restoration crews will spend their season outdoors; living and working in remote locations throughout the west.
Primary Responsibilities:
The primary job duties are to locally acquire natural building materials (e.g., brush, woody debris, & rock), stage said materials, and construct beaver dam analogs (BDAs), post-assisted log structures (PALS), and other low-tech structures for riverscape restoration projects. Constructing BDAs and PALS entails cutting and hauling slash to degraded streams, constructing in stream structures, and installing posts via hydraulic post pounder to lock everything in place. Construction utilizes a variety of tools, including but not limited to: hand tools, chainsaws, griphoists, hydraulic post pounders, ATV/UTVs, trailers, and more.
Position Description:
Field life is rugged and rewarding. Crew members will be living in remote locations – often with limited amenities. Crews will meet at our storage facility location in Logan, Utah before each hitch, and should primarily expect to camp at each worksite. However, Anabranch will provide travel trailers, short-term rental housing, or hotel stays when possible, location dependent. Accommodations are typically dorm-style living with communal meal prep, shared kitchens, and shared sleeping quarters. Teams will travel often – generally moving to a new project site for each hitch (work week).
Work schedules are typically eight 10-hour shifts followed by 6 days off. Sometimes hitch schedules may be adjusted to four 10-hour shifts followed by 3 days off. All necessary camping gear (other than sleeping bags) as well as all necessary safety gear, waders, and wading boots will be provided. Crew members will receive a modest stipend for use towards the purchase of hiking boots, work pants, or other necessary attire. Additionally, per diem is afforded to the group for family-style grocery shopping and meal preparation.
