Conservation Corps - Summer 2026 Western Corps Teams - Crew Member
Scacareers
Cook/team member job in Goleta, CA
Crew Member: 2026 Summer Western Trail Corps
Program Dates: 5/26/26 - 08/15/26
Training Dates: 5/26/26 - 06/16/26
Field Season: 6/17/26 - 8/15/26
Conservation Begins Here. Are you ready to serve in one of the most rugged and beautiful landscapes in the Western U.S.? Do you want to make a tangible difference in our natural spaces while learning skills to kickstart your conservation career? Join the Student Conservation Association (SCA) as a Crew Member for Western Trail Corps and embark on a journey that blends purpose with adventure.
This isn't your average 9-to-5 job. You'll be part of a 4-6 person crew working on trail maintenance projects to promote safe recreational experiences on public lands. Projects may include clearing trail corridors, logging out trails with crosscut saws, rock work, and maintaining tread and drainage features.
Members will be assigned to their project sites after they are accepted into SCA Western Corps. Project sites in summer 2026 may include National Forests in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, or Colorado. Previous project sites have included the Sierra National Forest, Inyo National Forest, and Sequoia National Forest. Crews will train, live and work together throughout the season. Now is the perfect opportunity to dedicate your time and energy to a project that helps the planet and people.
What We're Looking For
Crew members will develop skills that will make them good candidates for entry-level seasonal positions with land management agencies like the US Forest Service and the National Park Service. Work will involve physical exertion and be performed outdoors in varying weather conditions. SCA is looking for members open to new experiences, willingness to perform hard physical labor, and enthusiasm for sharing space with others. Experienced candidates will have a foundation in outdoor living (hiking, camping and backpacking) and experience working outside, but these are not requirements. Eagerness to learn in challenging conditions, actively contributing to a community, and adaptability in dynamic work environments are equally important qualities.
Conservation work is unpredictable. Crews will have to navigate inclement weather, from waking up in single digit temperatures, to extreme sun exposure. It is possible to experience thunderstorms, extreme winds, and smoke within the same workday. The most successful teams are those who can adapt as challenges arise and continue to work effectively with their team.
Success hinges on understanding and addressing both personal and group needs. Participants must be fully invested in taking care of themselves and supporting their crew.
Western Trail Corps is a substance-free program. Consumption of alcohol is never permitted when on duty. This begins at the start of pre-hitch and ends once all post-hitch activities are completed. Marijuana and illegal substances are never permitted. Participants will adhere to this policy, along with other expectations set by SCA.
Key Duties and Responsibilities:
Completion of conservation project and community tasks as assigned;
Whether it is using a crosscut saw to cut a tree, hiking with your team to your backcountry basecamp, doing dishes, or participating in a community meeting, full engagement is expected in all work projects and crew activities, both on and off duty;
Assist your crew through meal shopping, camp chores, basecamp maintenance, vehicle inspections, and other logistical and/or communal living tasks;
Interface with the general public and partner organizations in a manner that reflects positively upon the crew, organization, and partner agency;
Maintain an active, solution-focused mindset to achieve crew objectives;
Adhere to standards set through SCA's policies;
Marginal Duties:
Assist in travel planning, data collection, and team logistics support;
Non-routine tool and gear maintenance;
If eligible, may drive the SCA vehicle for team support;
Required Qualifications:
Must be 18 or older by the position start date;
Legal work status in the US;
Successfully pass SCA's background check;
Successfully complete a Health Screening Questionnaire before the position start date;
Attend Crew Member Training from 5/26/26 - 06/16/26;
Must uphold project, crew community, basecamp, vehicle, and additional safety standards set through SCA's policies;
Commitment to teamwork, learning, and problem-solving;
Work in challenging outdoor conditions, including extreme heat, extreme cold, high winds, and precipitation;
Perform manual, physical labor for up to 10 hours per day, hike 5+ miles in a day and occasionally lift and/or move 40 pounds or more;
Live and work in a multi-gendered, multi-cultural communal environment, sharing common spaces and communal meal settings each day;
This SCA Position is authorized under the Public Land Corps Authority. All participants that receive the PLC must be between the ages of 18 and 30, or veterans aged 35 or younger, at the start of the position. Participants must also be a citizen, national of the United States, or lawful permanent resident alien of the United States. Hours served can be applied toward the Public Land Corps (PLC) hiring authority if eligible.
Preferred Qualifications:
Camping and/or backpacking experience;
Experience using hand tools;
Strong interpersonal skills and community living experience;
For driver eligibility, must be over 21 years old, possess a valid driver's license for 3+ years, a Motor Vehicle Record that meets SCA's standards, and complete SCA's driver training;
Benefits
$650 one-time round-trip travel allowance (paid in first paycheck);
$300 - $450 weekly living allowance;
All allowances are subject to applicable federal, state, and local taxes.
Meals: Provided during fieldwork
Gear: Group camping gear, like tents, stoves, and filters, are provided
Uniform Package: Includes daypack, work shirts, water bladder and more!
You'll also receive:
Conservation trail work skills training
Defensive driver training, if eligible
Trailer driving training, if eligible
Work Schedule
In general, members should expect to work on their project for 80 hours within a two-week span. This is subject to change based upon programmatic and field-based needs as different projects will require different schedules. Some crews work 8 10-hour workdays with 6 days off, others may work 4 10-hour days with 3 days off.
Off-time is an opportunity to recharge before getting back on trail and activities vary from crew to crew. Some crews use off time to explore surrounding areas, like visiting local National Parks. Other crews curl up in a coffee shop to decompress. Some crews do a bit of both. A fraction of off-time will be spent preparing for the next hitch, such as purchasing groceries.
Living Arrangements
Living arrangements will be dependent on crew assignment. Most crews will have a mix of frontcountry and backcountry camping. Off-time housing may mean dormitories or frontcountry camping. Throughout the program expect limited access to electricity, Wi-Fi, running water and showers.
Community chores like preparing meals and washing dishes will be shared by members and leaders. SCA will provide group gear such as tents, kitchen supplies (like pots, pans, and stoves), and uniform items. Leaders and members will be expected to bring their personal items such as a sleeping bag, sleeping pad, clothing, and mess kit. A packing list will be provided after accepting a position. To support the crew's efforts, crews are issued an SCA vehicle and trailer for transportation and storage, and a field budget to purchase groceries, supplies, and fuel.
What Might the Season Look Like?
Service begins at Crew Member Training, where participants will gather with other corps teams to develop skills needed for the season. Training is field-based and will include a review of sustainable trail practices, tools for conflict management and proper basecamp setup. Staff will also share expectations on risk management in the field. A Wilderness First Aid course is offered to members during training.
Upon completion of Crew Member Training, the crew will travel to their project site. The crew will work on projects aimed at making trails safe and enjoyable for recreation users. The team should expect to work on trail projects in backcountry settings during work hitches lasting between 4 and 10 days at a time. Projects may include brushing corridor, removing downed logs with crosscut and/or handsaws, repair trail tread and drainage features, install or repair rock or timber structures, and reroute or install new trails. Off days will be spent in the backcountry. The crew will end with crews traveling to participate in cleaning up tools and equipment at derig in Ridgecrest, CA.
Personal Vehicle:
Not required; members are permitted to bring their personal vehicles for use during their days off, but SCA is not responsible for the fuel, parking or security of personal vehicles.

Conservation Corps - Summer 2026 Western Corps Teams - Senior Crew Member
Scacareers
Cook/team member job in Goleta, CA
Senior Crew Member: 2026 Summer Western Trail Corps
Program Dates: 5/26/26 - 08/15/26
Training Dates: 5/26/26 - 06/16/26
Field Season: 6/17/26 - 8/15/26
Conservation Begins Here. Are you ready to grow your leadership skills and explore iconic landscapes in the Western U.S.? Do you want to make a tangible difference in our natural spaces while learning skills to kickstart your conservation career? Join the Student Conservation Association (SCA) as a Senior Member for our Western Trail Corps and embark on a journey that blends purpose with adventure.
This isn't your average 9-to-5 job. You'll be part of a 4-6 person crew working on trail maintenance projects that promote safe recreational experiences on public lands. Projects may include clearing trail corridor, logging out trails with crosscut saws, rock work, and maintaining tread and drainage features. Senior members will work under the guidance of a Field Leader to support the logistical and community needs of your crew.
Senior members will be assigned to their project sites after they are accepted into SCA Western Corps. Project sites in summer 2026 may include National Forests in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, or Colorado. Previous project sites have included the Sierra National Forest, Inyo National Forest, and Sequoia National Forest. Crews will train, live and work together throughout the season. Now is the perfect opportunity to dedicate your time and energy to a meaningful project that prepares you for a future in the conservation world.
What We're Looking For
This position is designed to give the senior member hands-on leadership experience by supporting conservation crew management duties. Use what you learn from this position to apply for crew lead positions in the future. Work will involve physical exertion and be performed outdoors in varying weather conditions. SCA is looking for candidates open to new experiences, willingness to perform hard physical labor, and enthusiasm for sharing space with others.
Senior Members of trail crews wear many hats - worksite manager, reporter, community organizer and cheerleader are just a few. We are looking for candidates with applicable experience that can grow under the guidance of their field leader and program staff. Some candidates will have a strong foundation in living and experience working outdoors. Others may excel in fostering team dynamics, navigating interpersonal relationships, or creating a strong sense of community. SCA wants to identify your individual strengths for this role and help you develop additional necessary skills. Our senior members must have an enthusiasm to learn in challenging conditions, actively contribute to their community, and be able to adapt to dynamic work environments.
Conservation work is unpredictable. Crews will have to navigate inclement weather, from waking up in single digit temperatures, to extreme sun exposure. It is possible to experience thunderstorms, extreme winds, and smoke within the same workday. The most successful teams are those who can adapt as challenges arise and continue to work effectively with their team.
Success hinges on understanding and addressing both personal and group needs. Senior members will need to establish effective communication strategies with their team and work alongside their Crew Leader to accomplish project and team goals. Senior members must be fully invested in supporting their crew, through everything from community meetings to individual pep talks. Expect to offer support even outside of project hours.
Western Trail Corps is a substance-free program. Consumption of alcohol is never permitted when on duty. This begins at the start of pre-hitch and ends once all post-hitch activities are completed. Marijuana and illegal substances are never permitted. Participants will adhere to this policy, along with other expectations set by SCA.
Key Duties and Responsibilities:
Completion of conservation project and community tasks as assigned;
Whether it is using a crosscut saw to clear a tree, hiking with your team to your backcountry basecamp, doing dishes, or participating in a community meeting, full engagement is expected in all work projects and crew activities, both on and off duty;
Lead your crew through daily tasks like basecamp chores, vehicle inspections, tool counts and other logistical tasks;
Lead your crew through meal shopping, camp chores, basecamp maintenance, vehicle inspections, and other logistical and/or communal living tasks;
Manage pre and post hitch tasks;
Promote community development by facilitating teambuilding activities;
Support member well-being;
Participate in meal preparation, camp chores, and other communal living tasks;
Interface with the general public and partner organizations in a manner that reflects positively upon the crew, organization, and partner agency;
Maintain an active, solution-focused mindset to achieve crew objectives;

Work Schedule
In general, senior members should expect to work on their project for 80 hours within a two-week span. This is subject to change based upon programmatic and field-based needs as different projects will require different schedules. Some crews work 8 10-hour workdays with 6 days off, others may work 4 10-hour days with 3 days off.
Off-time is an opportunity to recharge before getting back on trail and activities vary from crew to crew. Some crews use off-time to explore surrounding areas, like visiting local National Parks. Other crews curl up in a coffee shop to decompress. Some crews do a bit of both. A fraction of off-time will be spent preparing for the next hitch, such as purchasing groceries.
Living Arrangements
Living arrangements will be dependent on crew assignment. Most crews will have a mix of frontcountry and backcountry camping. Off-time housing may mean dormitories or frontcountry camping. Throughout the program expect limited access to electricity, Wi-Fi, running water and showers.
Community chores like preparing meals and washing dishes will be shared by members and leaders. SCA will provide group gear such as tents, kitchen supplies (like pots, pans, and stoves), and uniform items. Leaders and members will be expected to bring their personal items such as a sleeping bag, sleeping pad, clothing, and mess kit. A packing list will be provided after accepting a position. To support the crew's efforts, crews are issued an SCA vehicle and trailer for transportation and storage, and a field budget to purchase groceries, supplies, and fuel.
What Might the Season Look Like?
To start familiarizing yourself with SCA's standards, senior members will be required to complete pre-program online course work. On your start date you will travel to Crew Member Training, where participants gather with their crew and other corps teams to develop skills needed for the season. Training is field-based and will include a review of sustainable trail practices, tools for conflict management and proper basecamp setup. Staff will also share expectations on risk management in the field. A Wilderness First Aid course is offered to members during training.
Upon completion of Crew Member Training, the crew will travel to their project site. The crew will work on projects aimed at making trails safe and enjoyable for recreation users. The team should expect to work on trail projects in backcountry settings during work hitches lasting between 4 and 10 days at a time. Projects may include brushing corridor, removing downed logs with crosscut and/or handsaws, repair trail tread and drainage features, install or repair rock or timber structures, and reroute or install new trails. Off days will be spent in the backcountry. The crew will end with crews traveling to participate in cleaning up tools and equipment at derig in Ridgecrest, CA.
Personal Vehicle:
Not required; members are permitted to bring their personal vehicles for use during their days off, but SCA is not responsible for the fuel, parking or security of personal vehicles.
