Gregory Goes There

It’s not often daughters tell their fathers how much they appreciate them. So this Christmas, I’m excited to do just that by gifting my dad a Gregory backpack to thank him for the years he spent exploring the Rocky Mountains with me.

Like most kids fortunate enough to grow up in or around mountains, I learned to ski and backpack in the same year I learned to walk. Today, the outdoors not only remains a huge part of my personal and work life, but continues to be something my dad and I enjoy together. And for that, I am extremely grateful.

So, if there are any fathers out there reading this, trust me on this, all the complaining, powder days spent on the bunny hill, ‘Dad, that doesn’t match my outfit,’ ‘are we there yet’ and all the gear, is well worth it! They’ll thank you for it later.

And maybe one day, they too will repay you handsomely with the latest and greatest Gregory pack.

Merry Christmas, Dad!
