FWP Looking to Hire a Full-Time Position in the Plentywood Area

Listen to Article

Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP) is on the hunt for a versatile full-time employee to wear multiple hats at Brush Lake State Park in the remote Plentywood area of northeastern Montana—a split role blending recreation ranger duties, maintenance work, and hunting access technician responsibilities. Applications are open until March 15, 2026, and you can reach out to Regional Recreation Manager Tim Potter at 406-263-5007 for the full scoop. This isn’t your typical desk job; it’s boots-on-the-ground work in wide-open prairie country, where you’ll be patrolling trails, fixing facilities, and ensuring public lands stay hunter-friendly amid growing recreational pressures.

For the 2A community, this posting is a golden opportunity wrapped in public service. Hunting access technicians are the unsung heroes who maintain easements, post boundaries, and fend off encroachments that could lock sportsmen out of prime whitetail and waterfowl territory—directly safeguarding the access that fuels our Second Amendment lifestyle. In a state like Montana, where over 90% of the land is publicly accessible for hunting and FWP actively promotes programs like Block Management (enrolling private acres for public use), this role means influencing on-the-ground policies that keep firearms in the hands of law-abiding citizens pursuing game. Imagine shaping access in an area teeming with mule deer and sharp-tailed grouse, countering urban sprawl or anti-hunting sentiments before they take root. Pro-2A folks with mechanical skills and a passion for the outdoors should jump on this; it’s a chance to embed our values in state resource management, ensuring future generations can shoulder up without red tape.

The implications ripple wider: as federal lands face scrutiny and recreation booms post-pandemic, FWP positions like this become frontline defenses for hunting culture. Plentywood’s isolation (population under 2,000) means low competition but high impact—perfect for patriots ready to serve. If you’re eyeing a career blending liberty, lead, and landscapes, apply now; deadlines like March 15, 2026, sneak up faster than a rutting buck. This could be your shot to protect the pursuits that define American freedom.
