Everyone Wants to be a Ranger

The latest issue of Backpacker is the Reader's Choice issue. It was nice to see that 44% of the readers said that being a ranger is their dream outdoor job. Several of the staff agreed. Some were even specific about which park they wanted to work for: NP of American Samoa, Yosemite NP, and Denali NP. Of course, this is also my dream job. I hadn't really thought about a specific place before, but I guess I would have to say Glacier NP, with Olympic NP and Pictured Rocks NL being my second and third choices.
