Our Focus
The outdoors are best enjoyed together and one of the greatest challenges in outdoor sports, is finding friends to go with. Participating in outdoor sports like skiing, climbing, and mountain biking can be dangerous if not impossible to do alone.
Finding the right partners can be hard. There are existing options like Facebook groups and reddit threads but these platforms offer no credibility for users and they can feel unsafe and random.
As a skier, climber, mountain biker, and hiker, I found it difficult to find trustworthy people to meet who were at my skill level. So that’s why I decided to create a platform where outdoor enthusiasts can meet real trustworthy people to explore and adventure with.
We wanted to create a platform where people can create real connections, real community, with a shared passion and love for the outdoors.
