I really want to get a job this summer that allows me to ski, so im thinking of getting a job on or around the glacier. Has anybody done this before and what are like good jobs that allow you to ski alot, keep in mind that im only 18 so i dont think i can work at a bar and i don't have a condo or anything up there to stay. so advice on where to stay would also  be helpful.

it'll be pretty damn hard for a single 18 year old dude to get a place in whistler. go early summer (late june, early july) for better luck at geting a place. don't think staff housing is an option for just the summer either, check the newspapers

if you're any good at building jumps, keep your eyes open for the digger contest

not true...there is staff housing if you work for whistler...also, if you buy beer for people, they'll let you couch surf all summer ..which is what i did...just post a thread in the regional section...also...talk to the guys at every camp...they need diggers...but your only pay might be a pass for the glacier...also...digging in the summer is a bitch lol...and if whistler doesnt work...go to hood...but you might need a car for mt hood
