I have noticed this also when out to many of the W N American attractions. I have heard that many of this workers are hired for fixed wages through group deals out of many E European countries (Russian Mafia?). They get paid very little (room, board, ) and are quickly sent back when the busy season ends. Through the volume of the workers, the company that brings them over makes good money. Of course, this could al be here say

. On a side note, while I was in Lake Tahoe, some of the E European workers where absolutely stunning (anyone remember Paulina Porizinkova?)
