5 Company Overview Outdoor Pursuit is a Pullman-based guided tour company aiming to help create adventures for outdoor enthusiast at affordable prices with reliable equipment. It was developed by four Washington State University students in the Fall of 2017: Cole Swanson, Shea Dretke, Karyna Balmain, and Andrew Foreman. They decided to share their passions of the outdoors with everyone. Outdoor Pursuit is not just for college students, it's for the community. We pride ourselves on reaching farther than the student population and create an environment for all. Exploring and seeing the beauty in nature is something everyone should experience. The activities we have are kayaking, camping, skiing, snowboarding, bungee jumping, sky diving, hiking, and fishing. All adventures are within a two-to-three-hour radius and are led by outdoor enthusiast who the founders believe will be best suited for leading groups safely. We are located at 1050 NE Monroe St. Pullman, Wa and will spread to Spokane in the coming year. This is extremely exciting for Outdoor Pursuit because we aim to show the community how incredible and fun exploring can be. Helping more than just the Pullman community realize this is what we hope to accomplish. Spreading the excitement of adventure with desire to be outdoors lead the founders to creating this.
