Summary
As an Assistant Lead Caretaker, you are responsible for supervising a crew of 2-4 caretakers either on Mt. Mansfield or Camel's Hump. Assistant Leads work closely with the Northern Lead Caretaker and Caretaker Supervisor to oversee trail maintenance and public outreach on their assigned mountain.
