Independent businesses are the heart and soul of our little mountain town. They give Durango its unique flavor and make our community anything but mainstream or generic.

From the squeaky wooden floors to the way our staff treats everyone like family, we believe that the experience of exploring an "old school" gear store is (almost) as much fun as playing outside.

Thank you for supporting CCL's (Citizens Climate Lobby) Wild and Scenic Film event about the environment and climate change. I appreciate Backcountry's commitment to the environment. And bonus, I won a great Osprey running vest at the raffle sponsored by Backcountry. Thank you Ben and everyone at Backcountry. I always get great service when I shop at the store and I appreciate your service to our community.

Great help! My wife surprised me with an Osprey Transporter Duffel 120. She got it for my birthday at the end of October and I left October 31 for a trip to Nepal along with my duffel. It worked great and I had to keep up with only one bag. Fully packed I was still within weight limits and size!!!! Thanks Ben! Lane

Backcountry Experience is a great shop with really knowledgeable and helpful people. They have helped us get outfitted for all of our backcountry adventures - summer and winter. They are also very community oriented, sponsoring all kinds of events that bring people together and teach about outdoor recreation. 

Business response:

Hi Kim, thanks for the kind words! Enjoy the holidays!

Love the experience level and the commitment to the outdoor industry. Big Ben Rockis rocks it, and he would never believe that came from me, and Michelle Britian can find anything you need or want, and helps you make the best selection for you!
