Boulder Mountain Repair – Outdoor Gear Maintenance and Repair

Learn how to extend the life of your outdoor products, make crucial repairs, and properly wash your gear to keep it functioning like new. In this 7-part online course led by the experts from Boulder Mountain Repair and BACKPACKER, you’ll learn how to fix seams, patch holes, re-waterproof items, and keep things smelling as if they were never used. Why spend money on new, when you can fix tried and true?

We’ll cover everything you need to know about taking care of outdoor outerwear, equipment, and accessories—from washing and drying to hole-patching and seam-fixing. You’ll learn pro tips for preventative maintenance, repair kit essentials, item-specific repairs (including tents, jackets, bags, and packs), and on-the-trail fixes.

We know you have a busy schedule, so we’ve designed this course to be taken at your own pace.
