David Rathbun

Originally from Santiago, Chile, and raised in Cleveland, OH, David found his passion for the outdoors after moving west to attend the University of Colorado Boulder. Drawn to the mountains and the freedom they provide, he began snowboarding and rock climbing, quickly immersing himself in the outdoor lifestyle. With a deep appreciation for adventure and a strong belief in nature’s transformative power, David now calls Bozeman, MT his home.
