Outdoor Retailer 2012
I – like many of you who are reading this – am THAT girl that could spend hours in an outdoor sporting goods store. Whether it’s Teton Mountaineering’s quaint location in downtown Jackson or the giant LL Bean back in Maine, the choices always take me aback. I could spend just as much time looking at a huge two-seater sea kayak as the miniature parts for a camping stove. And when it comes to ski shops – lets just say that all the buckles are “sooo shiny” and the skis are “sooo pretty.”
That’s part of the reason I was so excited to attend Outdoor Retailer as a part of the SheJumps team this winter. I had heard of the show for a few years, and from everything I understood, it was like REI on super steroids with an extra dose of testosterone. I wasn’t disappointed.
