Our Story

The Journey from City Life to Outdoor Adventures

I’m Dave, the founder of Average Dude Outdoors. I grew up in Boise, Idaho, a city surrounded by natural beauty, but I never really got the chance to explore it until I moved to the suburbs. I created the website out of a passion for sharing my experiences and learnings with others who are in the same boat.
