Cook needed at our Alaska Wilderness SAFARI operation for the 2024 summer season.

Do you think you have what it takes to work in a rugged, remote and unforgiving environment that will challenge you both physically and mentally?

Alaska Wilderness SAFARI is a unique fly fishing camp located in a VERY remote region of the Alaska Peninsula where the bears outnumber the people. We offer a week long “trip of a lifetime” for up to 9 guests per week and need professional, hard working, serious, team oriented (no ego-maniacs), NON-ALCOHOLIC and DRUG-FREE people with a passion for the outdoors and hospitality.

Your biggest challenges as the cook are (1) personally coping with a wilderness setting (a.k.a. “the elements”) and (2) working in an area with limited culinary resources (limited power, limited supply chain).

Everybody thinks they want to work in Alaska, but the work is NOT for everybody. Our work is perpetual and strenuous and is anything but your “great Alaskan vacation.” However, we have one of the most beautiful “offices” you can imagine...
