Default RE: becoming a guide

i might go be a wrangler where he works. can you tell me what a wranger does and what the pay usually is .
Wrangler/Camp Jack: stays in camp, cut firewood, wrangles & saddles horses in the morning, feed horses & mules, haul water, help cook clean up after breakfast, re-stock fire wood in tents, packs out meat & any other job/task that may pop-up?
The pay is low but the job satisfaction can be worth the cut in pay. If I could make half of my current wage as a guide or wrangler, I would consider doing it full time.
My current job allows me the freedom to ride into the backcountry & help a outfitter friend of mine. I try to do this trip twice a year.
