Get Adventure at Your Fingertips with the New Outside+ App
This article originally appeared on Outside
I'm Kelsey Barnes, the membership retention manager at Outside. My job is to keep our Outside+ members informed about and engaged with our core benefits: Read, Map, Watch, and Learn. Personally, I've never been able to just do one hobby or sport. Like many Outside readers and Outside+ members, I love learning new things and generally spending time outdoors--no matter how I'm doing it. My interests range from mountain biking in our beautiful trail systems where I live in the Pacific Northwest, rock climbing, backcountry snowboarding, and bike packing. How often I do any one of them ebbs and flows year over year.
When I joined the team in 2021, we set our sights on building a product that served those with the passion that all of us here at Outside have for nature and the unique ways each of us chooses to experience it. That includes the road cyclist, mountain biker, backpacker, triathlete, meal plan extraordinaire, outdoor-curious, and everyone in between. We had an ambitious roadmap to bring our publications, which cover a range of activities and subjects in the outdoors, all under one roof.
You, our readers, told us our content was difficult to navigate from site to site--especially for our Outside+ members, who have unlimited access to all of our content--and we listened. Here are some of the exciting features our team has worked tirelessly to create in our first iteration of our Outside+ app. And stay tuned, because there are more to come later this year!
