About Us
Built for the Backcountry. Tested in the Monashees.
Backcountry Monashee was founded in British Columbia with a simple goal: build dependable gear that performs when you’re deep in the mountains and conditions turn tough.
Our products are designed for hunters, hikers, and backcountry explorers who demand gear they can trust. When you’re miles from the trailhead, equipment isn’t just gear — it’s something you rely on. That’s why we focus on durability, practical design, and materials that can withstand real mountain environments.
The Monashee Mountains are some of the most rugged and unforgiving terrain in Western Canada. They are also the proving ground for everything we build. From steep alpine basins to wet coastal forests, our gear is designed and tested in the same environments our customers rely on it in.
Our Philosophy
We believe great gear should be:
• Durable – Built to handle years of hard use
• Functional – Designed with real backcountry experience in mind
• Reliable – Equipment you can depend on when it matters most
Every product is built with a focus on performance and simplicity — no unnecessary features, just well-designed gear that works.
Made in Canada
Backcountry Monashee is proud to design and manufacture gear in Canada.
Producing equipment domestically allows us to maintain strict quality standards and stay closely connected to the products we build. From initial design to final construction, our goal is to ensure every piece of gear meets the demands of real backcountry use.
Manufacturing in Canada also supports skilled trades, local industry, and the outdoor community that inspires everything we do. By keeping production close to home, we’re able to continually refine our gear and deliver products built for the rugged environments we know best.
Built for Real Users
Backcountry Monashee gear is made for people who live for the outdoors. Whether you're chasing elk in the high country, hiking deep into remote wilderness, or spending nights under a mountain storm, our equipment is designed to support those experiences.
We build gear we trust ourselves.
Our Mission
To build rugged, reliable backcountry gear that allows people to go farther, stay longer, and experience the wild places that make British Columbia special.
