You can tell summer is coming to a close, but this is Durango. Autumn rules with some of the best weather and views of the years. The mountains open up free of monsoons, the heat lets up and the days cool down, and pretty soon we’ll all be skiing. Until then, we’ll see you on the trails. #durango #adventure #Colorado #mountains #gratitude #shoplocal

Hear an echo? The Echo Hoody from @outdoorresearch is one of the most lightweight and breathable sun hoodies you’ll find. Throw in the Echo Cap and you’re ready for fun in the sun. #sunprotection #sunhoody #or #outdoorresearch #shoplocal
What a backcountry experience! We had the honor of running the final aid station for the @sanjuansoftie, a first year 100 mile ultramarathon through the amazing San Juan Mountains north of Durango. Every runner we saw had endured 96 miles behind them so there was a bit of everything, including smiles, tears, pain and some gnarly feet. We set up the night before, skipped a night’s sleep and tended to every runner who let us, and we’ll never forget it. We made ribs, soup, had an expedition dome warming tent, first aid and plenty of @tailwindnutrition , but above all we had a deep admiration for everyone that stepped up to the plate. We were certainly inspired and are already planning next year. Special thanks to the folks who made the San Juan Softie come to life. You did something amazing and we’re grateful to have been a part of it. #ultramarathon #ultrarunning #durango #sanjuansoftie #gratitude #shoplocal
Our secret STASH from @jetboil. The Stash packs itself into a tiny self contained kit, with an adjustable flame that can boil water in 2.5 minutes. The included stand makes it catastrophe proof- no spills! Plus, the whole thing comes in at only 7.1 ounces. That’s light! Stash it and hit the trail! #fastandlight #jetboil #campstove #trailgear #shoplocal

When you gotta go, you gotta go. If you’re not required to pack it out, Pact it in! Just a few of these tiny little mycelium tablets in a cat hole will breakdown waste and turn harmful bacteria into healthy nutrients for the soil. Also, Pact Wipes are a favorite for nature’s call or just a campsite bird bath. Available at @backcountryexperience #leavenotrace #poop #camping #mycelium #pactoutdoors
This one has always been a favorite. Just scoop and go, the Be Free from @katadyn_group is perhaps the most user friendly water filtration systems on the market. At 2.2 ounces , it sure won’t weigh you down and at $45, it’s a small price for a crucial piece of gear good for countless adventures. #getoutside #asventure #gear #durango #shoplocal #localgearshop

When you need some adventure and have to work in the morning, every minute counts! We were very impressed with the lightweight Katabatic hiking line from @obozfootwear in general, then we saw the Katabatic Wind shoe. Think lightweight, low cut hiker meets trail runner. In fact, we might run in this more than we thought, but it’s a performing all around shoes for any adventure . Made with recycled materials, it features a carbon plate, responsive energy foam midsole and plenty of traction, and of course it comes with a classic O- Fit orthotic insert, making the Katabatic Wind an instant favorite for all things trail. Come check it out at @backcountryexperience today . #hikingshoe #runningshoe #fastandlight #obōz #trails #adventure #durango
