Backcountry

As one of the best outdoor gear stores, in virtually every area of outdoor equipment, Backcountry offers an apparently unrivaled assortment of top brands.

Backcountry got its start in Park City, Utah, in 1996 with two people, a collection of avalanche beacons, and a garage. While their beginnings were modest and we have since evolved, their mission to offer the greatest outdoor gear and to excel in doing so remains unwavering.

They flourish on the trails and in the mountains surrounding Park City, where they have strong roots. Your interests are equally as valued at Backcountry as your work. They hire the most qualified and experienced workers in the sector, just as how they look for the world's best equipment.

They reward hard work with industry-leading benefits. The list of benefits is practically infinite and includes a gear discount that is almost too good to be true, countless options for workday leisure, a flexible time off policy, a casual dress code, reimbursement for carpooling, and an incredible calendar of local events.

The knowledge and experience of Backcountry's user and guru community, along with the product photos, specs, and descriptions, are difficult to match online or at most physical retail stores if you really like to research and almost experience the outdoor gear you are interested in before deciding what to buy.
