About us
In 2018, I completed a mountaineering semester in the Canadian Rocky Mountains, and as a newcomer to the sport, I had to buy a lot of gear! I spent hours reading blogs and watching YouTube videos, but the very first time I had to ice climb, I realized that my brand-new gloves weren’t suited for the task. Frustrated, I asked my instructor what was wrong. “Those gloves don’t work for this, you should have bought the ones I use” he answered matter-of-factly.
How was I supposed to know this? The experience sparked the idea for Gearchecker, to give newcomers a tool to view what gear the experienced use.
