Backcountry’s company history begins in 1996 with two skiers selling avalanche beacons from a garage in Park City. The business grew into an outdoor retailer serving people who buy gear and clothing for recreation. Its origins link a specialized mountain-sports product with the development of a broader shopping business. [1] [2]
The company’s current retail catalog extends across outdoor categories and apparel. Its Park City origin remains part of the brand’s story, connecting Utah mountain recreation with ecommerce. Customers encounter a retailer bringing together products from multiple brands, rather than a manufacturer selling only equipment it produces itself. [1] [2]
