In 1938, mountain climbers Lloyd and Mary Anderson joined with 21 fellow Northwest climbers to found Recreational Equipment, Inc. (REI). The group structured REI as a consumer cooperative to purchase high-quality ice axes and climbing equipment from Europe because such gear could not be purchased locally. The word quickly spread, and soon many other outdoors people joined the co-op. As REI grew, so too did the range of outdoor gear available to the co-op members.

Yvon Chouinard got his start as an alpinist who made climbing tools for himself and his friends; alpinism remains the heart of a business that now makes clothes for paddlers, fly fishermen and endurance athletes as well. These are all silent sports – none requires a motor – and the reward for each involves no audience and no prize other than hard-won grace, those moments of connection that break down the imaginary divide between ourselves and the rest of nature.
