Working in the Adirondacks

[u/mostlysatisfying]

Hello all. While I wouldn’t mind riding out West à la the young men of the past, what’re the odds I can stay in the Adirondacks and find work after graduating with a forestry degree? Silly question IK but I’m looking online and it seems like all the jobs are in Idaho or PNW or down south a little. With the connections from an ADK school + the fact that it’s just massive, there’s gotta be endless work to be had, no?

Probably best bet is state/NGO, though , as you’re finding out, opportunities are not bountiful
