BACKCOUNTRY RANGER INTERN

GNPVA

Taggart Schubert Memorial Fund
Backcountry Ranger Intern Program
 

In 1996 GNPVA announced the formation of the Backcountry Ranger Intern program.

The Associates would provide the funds for the salary of a summer intern, while the Park would select the intern and furnish housing, training and uniforms.  Currently, the intern is based at the Walton Ranger Station, but may move to different areas of the backcountry during the summer.
