About Us

We are a team of outdoor adventure enthusiasts with over 50 years of combined ski, backpacking, hiking, spelunking, adventure racing, glacier exploring and general outdoor travel experiences in North America, New Zealand, and Europe; including a season of ski instructing at Deer Valley. We've been through the process of planning and researching annual ski trips, backpacking trips, or day hikes more times than we can remember; whether with friends, solo, or with our families. We are convinced there is a better way to plan a fun and successful outdoor adventure. This desire motivated us to create MtnScoop.com.

At MtnScoop.com we strive to take the guesswork out of finding valuable information and planning your outdoor adventures with detailed, unbiased evaluations of mountain resorts all across the United States, outdoor gear, and great tips to maximize your fun and minimize the research time. We analyze data, gather expert recommendations and traveler experiences, and pull together the most important information on destinations you'll love to visit, if you're not lucky enough to call them home.

There's an adventure waiting for you somewhere and we've got the scoop! Enjoy the outdoors!
