My sister, Kathryn, and I have been working on this idea for a while. I’m always busy, she’s always busy, the usual excuses. We finally decided to quit talking about it and get it done.

Introducing Rock-Bear.com - A hybrid blog/product review/outdoor website with an obvious environmental tone. It started as a vehicle for Kathryn to write about all the gear she has used while hiking and working in the backcountry of Montana. Now it has three contributors and contains, or will contain, essays about gear, food, and just simply getting outdoors. It’s not a site for the hardcore adventurer. It’s about being outdoors without being outdoorsy.

We’ll see where it goes. There is no source of revenue at this point, but that’s what we’ll be working on next.
