About us

Backcountry.com began in 1996 with two guys, a stack of avalanche beacons, and a garage in Park City, Utah. Our roots were humble, and we've grown since then, but our vision is still clear: to provide the best outdoor gear—and to be the best at doing it. We have deep roots in Utah, and we thrive on the trails and in the mountains surrounding Park City. Our corporate headquarters sits just north of old town Park City and within a quick pedal or a few footsteps of the Wasatch mountains. You can also find us playing at our other company locations in Salt Lake City, UT, Christiansburg, VA, Portland, OR, and Costa Rica. Aside from our flagship site, Backcountry.com, we operate three other specialty e-tailers (Competitive Cyclist and Motosport) as well as two flash sales sites (Steep & Cheap and Whiskey Militia). At Backcountry, we value your passions just as much as your work. Much in the way that we seek out the highest performing gear on the planet, we hire the most knowledgeable and experienced employees in the industry. We offer industry-leading perks to reward a job well done. From a gear discount nearly too-good-to-believe, to boundless opportunities for workday recreation, a flexible time off policy, casual dress code, reimbursement for carpooling, and a killer lineup of local events, the list of perks is nearly endless. In addition to offering industry-leading perks, we have big-company benefits like medical, dental, vision, and disability & life insurance, paid maternity & paternity leave, and 401(k) matching to keep your family healthy and happy.

    This past week, the annual Alta Cirque Series put mountain runners to the ultimate test as they tackled steep elevations and grueling miles. As co-title sponsor, #Backcountry was there in full force, with our Gearheads Experts enthusiastically supporting the runners. We were thrilled to spread the excitement and build anticipation for our new Fall/Winter outerwear collection. Some of our team members even joined the race! 🏔 🏃♀️ Photos 📸 @martasamok @tysonbolduc @mountainsforbreakfastt @zebwatsonphoto

    We don’t want summer to end, so we’ve planned a few more trips to squeeze the last bits of sun before it starts to set early. When it’s time to set up camp, the Stoic Madrone 4 is our go-to tent (and not because we designed it in house). The Madrone 4 is a budget-friendly option that doesn’t lack in the features department. It even made The Inertia’s list of the best tents in 2024! ⛺ Read the review here: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gZ6tnv5C #Backcountry #OutdoorIndustry #Camping

    Always great to visit existing projects when we can! One of the many walls we've done for Backcountry outdoor stores. We bring the outdoors in, so they can get indoor people outside! Green Oasis can create standardized designs, so you can feel confident in the quality of multi-location projects.

    We’re all about gear, but it’s tough to test what works best when you’re sitting in a swivel chair. So, we headed to one of our local beautiful Blue Ribbon rivers for a little team bonding and gear testing! 🌅 #Backcountry #OutdoorIndustry #TeamBuilding

    Team building isn't just about your own crew. It's including others that help pull us all together and make lasting memories. Floating the river with 20 goats holding onto each other, regardless of what the river threw at us, was amazing. #lovewhereyouwork #backcountry #venturebeyond #twinningiswinning

    Today's Herd highlight is Ashleigh McClary. 🎉 Ashleigh is a powerhouse on our sales team and our Patagonia ambassador. Our Gearhead Experts are the backbone of our business and Ashleigh is not only a pillar on the outbound team, she also provides a wealth of gear and outdoor knowledge. We’re not sure what we’d do without her! 🐐 - Q:  What does the day-to-day look like for you in your current role? 🐐 Every day in my job is fun and dynamic! I help customers shop for the gear they need to get outdoors and even help many plan their trips every day. I’ve been working with the same group of customers for seven years now and even tag along with several of them on adventures! I also film product videos for the website, where I get to spend time in the studio and outdoors filming. Every week, I also attend clinics and events with our brands to learn more about the products we sell.   Q: How have you grown and evolved since starting at Backcountry? 🐐 I have been a Gearhead since 2017 and started with zero experience selling gear. Every year here I’ve learned a tremendous amount about the outdoor industry and the gear we sell and have picked up new skillsets. Since 2018 I’ve managed our VIP customers/key accounts and have been promoted to Senior Account Manager. I’ve also had the opportunity to be a brand ambassador for Arc’teryx and currently Patagonia.   Q: What is your favorite part about working for Backcountry? 🐐 I love the people and community here at Backcountry so much and think that I have the most fun job in the world. Not everyone loves their job and not everyone has a fun job, so I would say my very favorite thing is working in a job I love with people that I enjoy every day.   Q: What brings you life? 🐐 Spending time with my friends and family in the outdoors brings me life. My husband and I left our home in SC to move to Utah to be closer to the mountains to hike, ski, and paddle whenever we wanted and it has been the best decision we ever made. We now have a two-year-old son (Grady), who we’ve been able to share our love of the outdoors and adventures with and it has been the most rewarding and amazing experience of our lives. #OutdoorIndustry #Backcountry #outdoors

    The Herd loves mountain biking, but we don’t love baking in the summer sun. To help keep the rays away, we created the Long-Sleeve MTB Jersey to give us mobile shade while riding during bright days. Singletracks was impressed by the jersey as well and included the Backcountry Button-Up in their list of 2024 best mountain bike jerseys. 🚴♂️ Check out the article here: 🔗: https://lnkd.in/gsf-pfwh #OutdoorIndustry #Backcountry #Bike
