We are an outdoor retail and experiences company, focused on providing unique experiences across our locations in Canada, US, and Japan. For over 20 years we have operated evo.com.
We take skiers, snowboarders and mountain bikers to iconic destinations around the world via evoTrip, our group and private travel business. In addition to lodging at The Journeyman Lodge in Whistler, adventure-minded travelers can stay with us at evo Hotel in Salt Lake. We will open evo Hotel Tahoe City in Winter 2024/2025, and evo Hotel Hakuba in Winter 2024.
At the heart of everything we do is our mission to leave a positive impact on communities, by bringing financial and volunteer support to non-profit organizations dedicated to getting underserved kids outdoors. To support this work we have two skateparks, All Together Skate Park Salt Lake, and All Together Skatepark Seattle, where kids lives are positively impacted by the love of skateboarding.
