BLISTER was founded in Crested Butte, Colorado, from a deep love for mountain life and a desire for honest, reliable information about outdoor gear. We’re dedicated to providing the most thorough, transparent, and trustworthy reviews of skis, bikes, climbing gear, and more because we believe the right gear can make or break your adventure. Our goal is simple: to help you make confident, informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes when choosing equipment for the sports you love.

Beyond reviews, BLISTER is raising the bar for outdoor media through in-depth conversations and storytelling on the BLISTER Podcast Network. From snow sports to trail running, we explore the ideas, people, and innovations shaping the outdoor world. What started as a small, passionate project has grown through the support of our community, so thank you for sharing, listening, and being part of BLISTER’s mission to keep outdoor gear talk real.
