Summary Description
Through Guided Outdoors programming, the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) offers an engaging slate of staff-led outdoor experiences for adults, and families, which promote the appreciation, understanding, enjoyment, and responsible use of natural resources. We provide people of all ages and backgrounds with the skills to enjoy the outdoors and an increased understanding of their connection to the natural world. AMC Outdoor Guides predominantly lead trips for family and adults but will also be cross-trained and occasionally scheduled to lead with youth groups. Schedules are varied and include all days of the week. Trips range in length, but time off and work are balanced for staff.
AMC’s Outdoor Guides lead outdoor trips and teach outdoor skills based out of our Outdoor Program Centers. The Outdoor Guide acts as an interpretive and informational resource to participants and guests, providing high-quality customer service. The Outdoor Guide reports to the Staff Supervisor and works as part of a collaborative team. We seek a skilled Outdoor Guide and an energetic leader that shares a passion for the AMC mission to make the outdoors accessible to all.
