AREA INFORMATION: This position is duty-stationed at Dinosaur National Monument, a unit of the National Park Service, at the park headquarters 2 miles from Dinosaur, Colorado. Dinosaur National Monument is a spectacular 210,000-acre medium-sized park with mega-park values. Dinosaur has the most complete geologic record of any national park area and an internationally renowned display of Jurassic era dinosaur bones. The rugged landscape provides habitats that support a diverse assemblage of plants and animals and critical habitat for endangered species. People have been living on this landscape for over 10,000 years and the evidence of their activities can be seen in numerous rock art sites and homesteads. The whitewater rafting and magnificent scenery found in the canyons of the Green and Yampa rivers provide premier Western boating experiences. The Yampa is the only remaining large tributary in the Colorado River system that retains its free-flowing character. Dinosaur is over 90% recommended wilderness and was certified as a Dark Sky Park in 2019. Visit the website at www.nps.gov/dino for more information. Dinosaur National Monument spans a remote area of NE Utah and NW Colorado that is a 3.5 hour drive from Salt Lake City, Utah and a 6 hour drive from Denver, Colorado. Temperatures can reach over 100 F in the summer and below negative 25 F in the winter. The Uinta Basin is susceptible to poor air quality due to weather inversions that trap air in the basin, especially in the winter. The communities of Rangely, CO and Vernal, UT offer all amenities (hospital, schools, grocery, etc.) and are within commuting distance of headquarters located near Dinosaur, CO and the Quarry Visitor Center located near Jensen, UT.
HOUSING INFORMATION: Government housing may be available. Housing costs in the communities around the monument are often higher than average based on the impact of energy development industries in the area.
