Time outside is more than recreation—it’s restoration. That’s why we’re proud to support U.S. veterans as they find new purpose and connection through the outdoors. We recently teamed up with “Military Makeover” to help one veteran make the most of the outdoors.
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.

Huge thank you to everyone who packed the house at last night’s “Ski The Day” premiere! The incredible vibes, conversations, and energy were only possible because of our passionate ski community, athletes, the Utah Avalanche Center, and all the brands who helped support the film. "Ski The Day" encapsulates the spirit of riding every day as if it’s the last, whenever there's time to make it to the mountain. Plus, hearing stories from athletes like Parkin Costain, Toby Miller, and Ana Eyssimont is a reminder of how far passion and teamwork can take all of us. Couldn’t make it to the show? Good news: “Ski The Day” drops to the public on November 10th. Catch the trailer, behind-the-scenes interviews, and get inspired for winter here: https://lnkd.in/gUDYTsz7

Our new ski film is dropping on 11/6. And it’s not about chasing medals or filming the biggest lines. It’s about making the most of every snow day. Ski The Day was shot across single-day sessions with Tom Wallisch, Toby Miller, Parkin Costain, Ana Eyssimont, and a crew of riders from every corner of the mountain—backcountry, park, sled, and beyond. Because when the snow melts, stories stay. Join us IRL for the local premiere! Date: 11/6 Location: INDUSTRY SLC 650 S 500 W, Salt Lake City, UT 84101 Time: Doors open at 6pm Price: $5 for advanced tickets $10 at door (All proceeds go to Utah Avalanche Center) Extras: Complimentary drinks for 21+ attendees & raffle with prizes from Backcountry, The North Face & more Get tickets here: https://lnkd.in/gW6Ff2yp
