Mountain Plus ( MPGear.com ) is one of our Ideal Location Gear premier partners.
Mountains Plus has been online for a long, long time. They started the idea of Mountains Plus way back in 1995 back when Yahoo was ‘old school’ grey with blue links and Amazon was this ‘new’ site where you could buy books from some dude named Jeff who was shipping them out of his garage and making $20,000/week. It was the Wild West in many ways and we had to build everything we had and learn everything along the way. While we weren’t the first (sportsgeardirect.com was) to take the idea of selling outdoor gear to the internet…but we’re pretty darn sure we were the Second.
We were one of Camelbak’s first dealers (back when they were FastTrak systems out of TX) and we’ve seen many brands come and go in the nearly 15 years we’ve braved the wild and wooly world of outdoor e-commerce.
In all this time we’ve learned that there are really two things that matter when you buy outdoor equipment: how you feel when you buy it and how you feel when you use it.
We are 100% DEDICATED to making sure you feel great doing both!
We love spending time in the outdoors having fun adventures, and always wondering what’s over that next ridge. And we’re always looking for cool new gear that might add to the experience. But remember it’s theexperience, not just the gear, that matters in the end.
We alpine ski, cross-country, snowboard, cyclocross race, kayak, hike, backpack, camp and just about anything else that gets us out of the office and breathing fresh clean air. Just like you, we don’t want to max out our credit cards and empty our wallets to buy all the tools to take part in our favorite outdoor adventures. On the other hand, duct tape can only go so far!
