CAMP LOLO
Inspired by the legacy of Mt. Hood's Lolo Pass, we offer a curated collection of top-notch adventure gear – from rooftop tents to paddle boards. Rooted in family history, we're more than a store; we're a community passionate about inspiring transformative outdoor experiences. Join us in finding life's answers amidst the great outdoors – where inspiration meets exploration!
Camp Lolo has had deep routes in adventure travel and love for the freedom of the outdoors for the last 30 years and in 2017 owner Josh discovered the new "Overlanding" trend, blending his passion for photography and remote destinations. This led to the creation of Lolo Overland Outfitting in 2019, initially in a shared space, and later, a Portland area showroom and install shop in early 2020, just before the COVID-19 shutdowns and Lolo was forced to close it doors to the public until deciding to push back that spring.
Despite challenges, Lolo Overland grew rapidly, becoming one of the fastest-growing overland shops in the country, known for its showroom, install services, online store, and popular events like the treasure hunt series.
In 2023, Josh rebranded to Camp Lolo, closing the Portland area operations to focus on online sales and expanding beyond the overland scene aligning closer to a deep calling to inspire lifes balance through adventure. Now based in Hood River, Oregon, Camp Lolo hosts large events, emphasizes video production, and embodies a blend of surf, skate, van life, and modern camping culture, staying true to its roots in adventure and outdoor living.
At Camp Lolo, we're passionate gear junkies, dedicated to testing and offering a curated selection of products to enhance your adventures, leaving more room for special and inspiring experiences. We prioritize sourcing products locally and ensuring that they align with our goals and values.
Over the years, we've built the largest curated marketplace for overland and off-road gear, camping, survival, and outdoor fun. We now offer over 100 brands and more than 8,000 products, fulfilling over 10,000 orders since shifting to online sales. We're always on the hunt, testing and expanding our lineup while bringing manufacturers and the community together in one place.
Since day one, our mission has been fueled by a profound passion and calling. In 2007, Josh felt an overwhelming urge to explore the mountains, backroads, and outdoor action sports, aiming to inspire others with the transformative power of nature through his camera. This fire has burned deeply within Josh and our team over the years.
However, as with any business, things can get hectic and before we knew it , we had lost the time and capacity to focus on our mission as it was all hands on deck to first make sure customers were taken care of and jobs were completed. In 2023, we rebranded to Camp Lolo to realign with our core mission of inspiring and changing lives. We've heard countless stories of how our customers' lives have been improved or healed through nature and adventure.
While selling products sustains us, our ultimate goal is to bring positive change and a fresh perspective to an industry often dominated by corporate interests and gear focus. We prioritize the mental benefits and the joy of the outdoor lifestyle.
