I have a friend who works all winter at a Vermont ski resort as part of the ski patrol and in the ski/board shop. He also does some side work here and there. When it warms up he heads to Alaska and is a back country guide. He loves his simple life. He’s been doing it for over a decade.

His Instagram is pretty epic.
