Outdoor & Recreation Business Directory
At CNS, we believe the outdoors should be for everyone—not just those who can afford expensive gear. We aim to work with outdoor brands, local businesses, retailers, outlets, and gear exchanges to identify special deals, member discounts, affordable used gear, and other opportunities.
Help us build partnerships that lower the cost of getting outside and make outdoor adventure more accessible.
Buy smarter, reuse more
Consider borrowing, renting, repairing, or buying secondhand before purchasing new equipment. For safety-critical climbing gear, verify its history, condition, manufacturer guidance, and retirement criteria; avoid unknown-history ropes, harnesses, and helmets.
