Who We Are

We created an outdoor adventure experience designed to train and equip participants for mountain adventures that challenge, grow and develop their skills and confidence as leaders and individuals. We offer multiple experiences in the mountains of Arkansas, Colorado and soon to be Wyoming; taking participants into the backcountry for an experience that will last a lifetime! Will you come and join us!

About the Founder

My name is Drew Davis. I am the husband to my wife and father to 4 kids. I am a healthcare professional and certified professional outdoor adventure guide…

I believe that we were created to cultivate, subdue and enjoy creation. For me, whether I am hiking, mountain biking, fishing, backpacking, or competing in adventure races; being outside is my element. This is why I started Equipped Outdoors. I LOVE being outside. I love guiding, teaching, discipling, and training up leaders. I have heard it said, find out what you love to do the most and do that…well this always felt like a dream that would never come true, I had to take a leap of faith.

Whatever you're interested in whether it be backpacking, trout fishing, climbing or just wanting to get away and disconnect; we've got you covered! Come relax, network, disconnect and come back with new skills, amazing memories and an enhanced network! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

I started Equipped Outdoors so men can get out and experience the outdoors the way it was intended to be enjoyed... it its rawest form... the backcountry! I believe in the power of incorporating lessons of Leadership, Community, Discipleship and survival into the outdoor experience. My hope is to create opportunities for others to get outside, learn some skills, and to see lives changed!
