Preserving the wilderness so everyone can get out and sleep under the stars.

What We Care About & Why it Matters
Making high-quality gear is important to us and our customers—but that gear would be a lot less important without high-quality communities that use it and high-quality wild spaces for those communities to explore. hat’s why we have been committed to advocacy and sustainability efforts throughout our 50 year history. By supporting organizations like Big City Mountaineers, Outdoor Empowered Network, Access Fund and Conservation Alliance we work on our goal of preserving beautiful wilderness spaces and making nights under the stars accessible to everyone.
Making Camp for Everyone with Big City Mountaineers
Equal access to the outdoors is an unrealized dream. Big City Mountaineers actively builds access, and strengthens communities in the process, by guiding youth from disinvested communities into wild spaces and teaching them valuable life skills along the way. We know the benefits the wilderness brings to our lives, but not everybody is comfortable or capable of discovering it. BCM aims to change that, and we are proud to support the mission.
Protecting Wild North America with
the Conservation Alliance
The Conservation Alliance envisions a planet where wild places, wildlife and people thrive together. Over their history they have become the leading voice of business conserving wild places in North America. By galvanizing businesses around the common goal of conservation, they support grassroots efforts around the continent to save key wild spaces from exploitation and foster communal activism in doing so. We proudly join them.
