With enough effort, anyone can dig a hole in the snow for an RV!

WOW - Just got Back from Colter!
We took another tour of Colter this morning and it's still winter!
But we are digging out a spoon full at a time......
I know everyone want's to see summer pictures but these are worth taking a look at.
Colter Bay Marina - note tops of gas pumps finally sticking out of the snow.
Marina Store & Shop
Someone better send some pictures of some palm trees to put in here, we are jinxed with winter!

Welcome To Colter Bay Village - Getting Here
The easiest way to figure out what you need, how to get here, when to arrive, how to get from the airport or Jackson to Colter Bay and how to get into the park can be found in the package sent to you by Human Resources.
READ IT BEFORE LEAVING FOR COLTER BAY!
I know it's against the rules to read directions so please make an exception and read everything sent to you by Human Resources.
Great non-reader items from last year!
1) Nobody is at the airport to pick me up? Did you call or let us know what time your flight is arriving - answer "no" Our wonderful transportation staff will pick you up if they know when you are coming.
2) I didn't bring my identification for check in - duh - well you can wait to have it FEDEX'd from home before you can check in.
3) HAIRCUTS - Read the grooming section in the information sent to you by Human Resources - the closest barber shop is in Jackson and it's expensive or you can get a bad haircut for $12.00. You can't check in if you don't meet the grooming standards
4) DRUG TESTING - DRUG TESTING - DRUG TESTING
Everyone is in a Random Testing program all the time, if you have an accident while working you will be tested.
If you work in the MARINA 100% of the staff are tested the first week of working and 25% are tested each month.
Bottom line, if you are into the drug scene this is not a great place for you so just let us know you won't be coming for the summer!
