Eagle Creek comes to town, becomes Steamboat’s 21st outdoor gear brand

By

Eagle Creek, a long-established name in the adventure travel gear business, is making Steamboat Springs its new home under the leadership of a familiar face.

“It is a business that is in the space that I’ve dedicated my life to — what I call the broader outdoor industry,” said Steamboat resident Travis Campbell, who purchased Eagle Creek from VF Corp. on Sept. 3 and plans to move the company’s headquarters to Steamboat. “To be able to have the control to essentially locate, or headquarter, in what is now my hometown is fabulous.”
