Finding winter work can be an awesome way to spend the winter and make some extra cash. Some winter jobs pay a lot, some do not. So how do you find a good winter job from the comforts of your own home? Well, that's what I'm here to share with you. I have had every kind of winter and summer job you can think of. From working at summer camps, to being a whitewater rafting guide, to training sled dogs in Alaska. I have pretty much done it all. How did I find these jobs you ask?

I have spent many an hour online and in the book stores trying to find cool winter jobs. Some of the books and websites I looked through for winter jobs were awesome and others just sucked. The first place I checked was online.

Winter Jobs - Winter Jobs Online

My favorite website for finding winter jobs is www.CoolWorks.com. How appropriately named, right? This website seems to have the largest database of winter jobs. Despite its name it even has a lot of seasonal jobs in case you are looking for something to do in the summer or any other time of year.

CoolWorks has all kinds of winter job listings. It has sections for National Park Jobs, Resort Jobs, Guide Jobs, Ski Resort Jobs, Camp Jobs, State Park Jobs, Ranch Jobs, and more.

When looking for a winter job on this website you can search locations or types of winter jobs. The results bring up short descriptions of either the job or the business. Some businesses and resorts offer a number of wither jobs so you have to click on the link to find out what other winter jobs they offer.

The link in the results usually takes you to the businesses website. This is nice because it means that you don't have to sign up with CoolWorks to look at job listings or setup an online resume or any of that annoying stuff.

Winter Jobs - Books for Winter Jobs

There is one book that I used like a bible for a long time when it came to find winter work or just work in general and the was The Back Door Guide to Short Term Job Adventures.
