Welcome to SteepPlanet.com

If you are reading this, then you are like minded about living the outdoor lifestyle. Nature is all around us. When you play outside you recharge the batteries, revitalize the senses and tune the mind and body. That is what living this chosen lifestyle means to us. Even if it happens once a day or once in a while. Anyone can feel recharged after playing outdoors. Runners know it, bikers know it, climbers, skiers, hikers, and even Frisbee throwers know it too.

At Steep Planet, we have a long resume' of life experiences which have culminated into what we specialize in. We specialize in your relationship with your mother, (Mother Nature) and her ever changing moods, by offering you a wide variety of hand selected products for your challenges and your comfort. We specialize in eliminating the voices in your head that may say “I could be better at this if I weren’t thinking how uncomfortable, or cold or damp or hot I feel.” Have you said that to yourself? We all have. If your apparel is uncomfortable, it hinders your performance. The steeper the terrain, the louder the voices can become. Hence the name Steep Planet.

Steep Planet offers the user High-Tech and, in some cases, Low-Tech solutions. The industry is teeming with products that are technically innovative and functional. We sift through the redundancy factor and offer up the best solutions at the right price. Returning customers have said that the product selection and speed of shipping are the reasons they come back to Steep Planet. And yes, we still answer the phones (customer service is our goal).

Steep Planet was founded by Scott and Lisa in Eugene, Oregon in 2003 . The business has recently moved to Salida, Colorado to be closer to the recreation, mountains and small town quality of life. They are both avid in their outdoor pursuits. Lisa is a runner and bicycle racer as well as an accomplished skier and will try any new outdoor activity. Scott is more of a poser, having lived in a number of ski mountain towns and showing no signs of speeding up. He trains all the time just to keep up with Lisa. His motto is “I am going to start slow and taper off from there.”

Scott and Lisa wish all who visit the website a safe journey, and remember to not take it too seriously. It’s a Steep Planet, better get comfortable.

Located in beautiful sunny Salida, CO
