Got to work with a lot of kids and sports. Got to know the community and the people in it as well. Lots of options with how many hours you work. If you want to work a lot you can if you don't want to you don't.
What I wish was different
Nothing this was an excellent experience.
Advice
A great job to have if you are already working a job and want another one. Helped me learn to deal with annoyed parents and coaches as well as children.

What I liked
I enjoyed spending a lot of time outdoors surrounded by good people. I also enjoyed traveling to various locations around Utah and Idaho that people don't typically get to go to. I enjoyed the opportunity to work hard.
What I wish was different
I wish there would have been more work, but the amount of work depends on the fire season, so its really out of anyone's control.
Advice
One thing that I learned from this experience is that there are a lot of career paths out there. I feel like it is easy to get so focused on one career path that you forget there are other options out there.
