Hey Llamas! There are some scammers impersonating our brand (and others), offering extreme discounts and "going out of business" sales. Our team is currently working hard to keep our community protected against these accounts but it is becoming very difficult as they have many different accounts and names. Some tips while we work on getting them taken down: - any brand promotions and/or sales will always be directly on our www.cotopaxi.com website - double check the logo / name for misspellings - check for the blue verification badge - if you see an ad or account that seems like it might be a scam, send us a message (if it is, report them) - for more info on what these posts look like, please visit this article https://bit.ly/3vJPktK Thank you all for your support and help, 🦙 ❤️

I thru-hiked the Pacific Crest Trail in 2018, and that was the first time I truly experienced what it was like to belong to a community. Through the pandemic, like so many of us, I lost sight of what it felt like to belong to a community or how to get back belonging to one. I've spent the last seven months traveling across the United States, photographing individuals at locations where they recreate outside close to their homes. Seeing these people in their safe spaces outside, experiencing how they enjoy nature, and witnessing how they create outdoor communities by building access and representation in the outdoors has been teaching and awe-inspiring. This work has been a reminder that there is so much we can learn from each other if we take the time to listen. I do this work because it's essential to show the human experience in the place we ALL come from: Mother Nature. We are all so alike that we are different, and I hope this project can bring us all back to each other and create that community we have all been missing.

The Waterpocket Fold, a geological wrinkle on earth! The Waterpocket Fold, a geologic wrinkle on earth! Located in south-central Utah in the heart of red rock country, Capitol Reef National Park is a hidden treasure filled with cliffs, canyons, domes, and bridges in the Waterpocket Fold. The easiest to access portion of the Waterpocket Fold, found near the Fremont River, is known as Capitol Reef: capitol for the white domes of Navajo Sandstone that resemble capitol building domes, and reef for the rocky cliffs which are a barrier to travel, like an ocean reef. The geologic story of Capitol Reef can be broken down into three steps, each of which occured over millions of years of geologic time: deposition, uplift, and erosion. Movement along the fault caused the west side to shift upwards relative to the east side. The overlying sedimentary layers were draped above the fault and formed a monocline. The rock layers on the west side of the fold have been lifted more than 7,000 feet (2,134 m) higher than the layers on the east. More recent uplift of the entire Colorado Plateau and the resulting erosion has exposed this fold at the surface within the last 15 to 20 million years. The name "Waterpocket Fold" reflects this ongoing erosion of the rock layers. "Waterpockets" are small depressions that form in many of the sandstone layers as they are eroded by water, and are common throughout the fold at Capitol Reef. Erosion of the tilted rock layers continues today forming colorful cliffs, massive domes, soaring spires, stark monoliths, twisting canyons, and graceful arches. 📸: @audreygreen4

Things we love to do while camping (only)! 1. Waking up when the sun gets up 2. Drinking either too strong or too weak coffee 3. Sleeping on the ground 4. Walking places with heavy bags on our backs Feel free to add to the list. 📸 @relauren

@themegalab is redefining the way society experiences science by showing that creatives such as surfers, skaters and artists can find innovative solutions to environmental problems. When we first approached @cliff_kapono to work together, he met us with questions about our company, what we support, our supply chain and the human elements of how we run our business. We brought to him questions on how his work impacts his community, the people who live there and the land (and sea) they live on. This partnership embraces the unity between people and planet. If we can take the time to be mindful, purposeful, and compassionate, we can make a positive impact.

Dear Moorea, your mountains, cliffs, jungles, trails and beaches will forever be in my 🫶🏼 - @tamionthetrail

What does it look like to partner up with ambassador @cliff_kapono? By taking his scientific background outside the lab and applying it to everyday life, environment, community, and people, @cliff_kapono is making an impact all around him. We are excited to share his stories and perspective with our Coto community over the next two years. #gearforgood

Hiking always makes us feel better and this is probably why...*Inspired by @earthmind_wellness
