Get Paid $20,000 To Drink Beer and Hike the Appalachian Trail

To qualify for the position, you must love hiking and beer, be capable of hiking 2,200 miles, and be at least 21 years old. And your efforts certainly won’t go unrewarded. In addition to $20,000, your backpacking gear will be paid for, you’ll get to assist with “product research” (i.e. drink free beer), and you’ll receive a variety of Devils Backbone merchandise.

To apply, fill out the form on the Devils Backbone website, explaining why you’re passionate about hiking the Appalachian Trail in 2021. Applications are open through July 31, 2020. If chosen, you’ll have quite some time to prepare, as the position doesn’t start until next spring.
