I'm a prospector / 'geological field technician'. It's the shit.

I get to work in some pretty rad places:

Stream sampling:

Prospecting:

Lots of heli work:

Slinging in a radio repeater:

I even get to shred after work:

Pretty sweet gig.

Damn Andrew, sweet gig :rock:

Pretty sure I saw Ray on the discovery channel :lol:

I work in online retail, it pays the bills and allows for ample time off. In the winter I like to telecommute from the East Side :wink:

I hope to align my day job more closely with my passions and interests one day...

Receiving

Shipping

Just a glimpse of what goes on at a ski resort in the summer.
This is a usual tower rebuild for us, sorry no shots of actually lowering any equipment.

The winch.

The real work goes on up there.

The "little" grove.

Our forklift.

A view from the driver seat.

A combo of residual snowpack (photo is from October), glacial melt and runoff from heavy fall rains.
