Full Job Description

Want to live in the mountains AND make serious money? If yes, read on:

Bear Claw gives you steady, high-paying work in the mountains of Colorado while you ride, ski, or hike on your days off. We’re the crew that clears 100+ acre wildfire scars, opens land for new communities, and leaves behind 5-star finishes.

So why join our team? At Bear Claw, you can keep that mountain lifestyle AND stack paychecks year-round. We clear land, fight wildfire risk, and play in the same woods we protect. Here’s what you get:

$25–$32.50/hr (top end of forestry pay)
Medical, dental
Training + advancement (certs, skills, leadership)
Year-round work (not just “seasonal hustle”)

About you:

You’ve got forestry experience (1–3+ years) and can run chainsaws + heavy equipment.
You live for the mountains. Ski bum in the winter? Dirt biker in the summer? Perfect.
You deliver 5-Star Service: You take pride in your work and leave jobs so clean and precise that clients brag about you.
You have Integrity: You do the right thing even when no one’s watching. Safety, honesty, and quality come first.
You’re a Team Player: You’ve got each other’s backs, can take direction, and know how to step up when the crew needs you
You are an efficient operator: You get the job done fast without cutting corners. Your hustle matches your skill.
You chase excellence: You’re not satisfied with “good enough.” You want to be the best at what you do and keep leveling up.

Colorado’s mountain communities are on the frontlines of wildfire danger. We’re the crew that prevents the next big blaze. As a Forestry Technician at Bear Claw, you’ll run heavy equipment, drop trees with precision, and keep Colorado’s mountain towns safe.

This isn’t punching a clock in some warehouse. This is real work, outdoors, in the Rockies. What you’ll do…? Here’s the fun part:

Operate big toys: skid steers, mastication heads, excavators, tracked chippers, log grapples.
Chainsaw mastery: drop, limb, and buck trees with precision.
Slash management: chip it, haul it, burn it, scatter it.
Erosion control: contour felling, install erosion barriers.
Equipment care: daily inspections + field repairs.
Work across Colorado’s best mountain towns (Grand, Summit, Eagle counties, and beyond). Per diem covered when travel is necessary.

Requirements:

Sawyer Skills: You know your way around a chainsaw.
Heavy Equipment Experience: Hands-on time running forestry skid steers with mulchers, track hoes, excavators, and tracked chippers (2+ years)
Must be 18 years of age or older
Driver’s license & car required

Qualifications

Do you have a driver's license & car (Required)
Do you have US work authorization (Required)
