Our Story
Outabs was founded because Mark saw a need for better outdoor resources in one place. Mark loves the outdoors and often googles for reliable information. Personal blogs are interesting, but they don’t always deliver the practical knowledge he needs. These stories are based on personal opinions and experiences, which aren’t always accurate or helpful. Plus, many articles only scratched the surface, not offering enough for someone like Mark, who really wanted to learn.
That’s why Mark started Outabs. He wanted to offer a more organized way to learn about the outdoors. Outabs is designed to empower outdoor enthusiasts with the knowledge and skills they need to develop a deeper understanding of their favorite activities. We believe that accessible and comprehensive knowledge is key to fostering a deeper appreciation for the outdoors and enabling individuals to confidently explore and enjoy all that nature has to offer.
