Seasonal work anyone?

I've recently started looking into seasonal jobs and was curious if anyone around here has experience with that. In particular leaving the state you're in to go work somewhere else. I know and have read up a bit on individuals that actually work a circuit of jobs around the U.S. and that may be something I'd be into at some point.

A few summers back I had applied to work at a vacation destination in norther Michigan. I got the job but unfortunately the logistics of me making up there in time didn't work out.

As of now I've been reading up a lot on the Appalachian Mountain Club and the huts they have through out norther New Hampshire. They offer seasonal work at these huts, more or less being a care taker along with a small group of co-workers. Sounds interesting and from the pictures of the area it looks amazing to say the least.

I have no idea why but the Appalachian Trail has always really interested me. I'd at some point like to attempt a thru hike of it. Not to mention I've always wanted to visit New Hampshire. I'm thinking I'm going to apply come November for a position up there. From what I've read it looks like mainly college students which I'm just on the outskirts of being. I'll be turning 27 in a month.

Anyways I'm just curious to hear if anyone else has worked jobs like this. What was your experience, what are you thoughts on it?
