Outdoor Retailer is basically Interbike for the outdoor industry. It has been in Salt Lake City for 20 years, and this will probably be the last.

Patagonia and Black Diamond, a Utah based company, have said they will not attend. The new administration has opened up public land to the highest bidder. Specifically here, the Bears Ears National Monument. So, I personally love a company that is willing to vote with their wallet, or lack there of. Hit 'em where it counts, the pocket book.

I will miss SLC, but not that much.


Pretty soon it's gonna be, "Texaco presents The Great Smoky Mountains, DBA Georgia Pacific." Bunch a turds....
