Cooking for hunters and crew in a remote horseback hunting camp run by Yellowstone Outfitters out of Jackson, Wyoming. The outfit works under a U.S. Forest Service permit that prohibits permanent buildings, so the camp kitchen operates from wall tents and everything comes in by pack string; housing and food are provided on that basis. The employment page lists hunting camp cook alongside pack trip cook and a trailhead manager/cook role, and notes that most hiring happens between December and April ahead of the season. The seven-step online application asks for a photo, resume, work history, references and a skills self-assessment covering cooking, horse experience and backcountry travel. No pay figure is published.
