OUR MISSION

MountainAbout is a creative, energetic, adventure seeking company whose goal is to help hikers drastically reduce the load they need to carry which will make their wilderness outings more enjoyable and even a little easier. To that end we are dedicated to offering the very best high quality gear, while not sacrificing durability or comfort. We will also strive to be partners with our environment and our community and to always treat our employees, our suppliers, and our planet with unmeasurable respect. While we have all heard the term "customer service" thrown around, we desire to stand apart and deliver extraordinary customer care, because without our customers MountainAbout would not even exist. All of us here at MountainAbout encourage everyone to seek out their own dreams no matter what they may be. We hope that in some small way we will be able to help all those around us, from our customers to our employees, to succeed at achieving their goals.

Welcome to MountainAbout. We are a small company of dedicated outdoor enthusiasts who also have a passion for the gear we use in our chosen pursuits. We do not have a big corporate office (small one room office and a garage) or million dollar add campaigns. We make gear that is unique, tough, light, and that we feel there is a genuine need for. We will not claim to reinvent the wheel, just take gear that we have all used and try to make it a little better.

As a company proudly based out of Tennessee, we also would want to give some love to the east side. The Southern Appalachians is where we call home and it is also home to some off the most magnificent scenery in the world. Some may say that the most majestic mountains are those that are found in the west, and most areas of the west are incredible, but we believe that you can find amazing places to hike no matter where you live. Even if there are no mountains.

Who is MountainAbout gear for? It can be for anyone. It is for the long distance hikers that spend whole seasons on the trail. These furry and irregularly bathed warriors have our envy and respect. But it is also for the another kind of warrior. Those who go the distance in everyday life who can only get out for a few days at a time. Like the single mom who works two jobs and can only get off for a quick hike now and again, the college student who cant wait for spring break so they can head out for week, or the father with a family that needs to get out for the weekend.

Whoever uses our gear, and for whatever purpose all we ask is that they get outside and follow their passion. Life's a gift, so get out there!
