The Outpost Restaurants are located atop North Peak Mountain, the second mountain “back” at Keystone.  Access to this location during the winter months is solely by double gondola/chairlift ride. This is an unpaid commute to a remote location, and operations at this location are subject to weather delays and cancellations. There is generally no compensation for cancelled shifts. As this is a remote location and subject to weather events, evacuation and delays are possible. Employees may be required to leave the building via snow cat, snowmobile, or other transportation methods. Skiing/riding is *not* required to vacate the building.  Medical and fire help are located nearby, but response times may vary depending on weather and other incidents occurring around the mountain.

Adaptability and flexibility are a must in any position at the Outpost, the right candidate will maintain a positive attitude in the face of challenges, will embrace the service culture of Vail Resorts, and maintain a sense of cooperation and support with the other outlets in the building.

Employees may be expected to work in other outlets in the building, as well as perform duties outside of their normal job functions.
