Roam Industry is to be the focal point of human powered outdoor adventure in San Juan County, Utah. By offering the best in gear, activity, remote accommodations, and services.

Our mission at Roam Industry is to be the leading source in backcountry adventure as well as wilderness skills and education in San Juan County Utah. Our hope is to be a source to clients we bring to the area as well as the local community.

BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY.

Reducing impact on the environment and areas we explore by promoting human powered travel. Being educators and teaching safety techniques in all our provided activities. Always working to improve quality customer service, providing unforgettable experiences for our clients.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY.

The shape of the land is where we find our adventure. At Roam Industry are dedicated to utilizing methods resulting in minimal impact, focusing mainly on human powered travel so one might be closer to a natural pace to experience the remote and unknown wilderness the rest of the world has yet to find.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY.

At Roam Industry we feel a social responsibility to the local areas we wish to be a part of. Working with rural areas to assist in their development, growth, and expansion. We hope to provide a renewed awareness to the great outdoor opportunities that surround them.

As our business strengthens we feel it is our responsibility to encourage our customers to shop locally and refer our customers to businesses located in Monticello, UT and throughout San Juan County. During races we support local food establishments in lieu of hiring in outside caters, we have developed relations with local stores to source supplies, and hope to continue to develop such relationships.

ÇELLO PROJECT.

The Çello Project has long been on the mind of Dustin Randall, who being raised in Monticello (20 min from world class climbing destination Indian Creek), was not exposed to rock climbing or mountain biking until his twenties. The purpose is to bring skiing, climbing, and mountain biking to the attention of the youth and adults living in Monticello by sponsoring a climbing and adventure club. We provide reduced local rates for quality guidance, training, and exposure to what we feel to be life long endeavors. Our cost is simply to help cover the basics of equipment and fuel for transportation—our time during these programs is strictly voluntary. We believe our success to be dependent on the interest and support from the local population. To assist with the cost of equipment we do have some interested companies in contributing to this effort.

“Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out going to the mountains is going home; that wilderness is a necessity…”
