Outdoor Retailer announced the winners of its Inspiration Awards at a lively ceremony and party Tuesday night in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The host of the event, Timmy O’Neill, a rock climber, outdoor advocate, and past recipient, kept the packed room laughing during the ceremony, while passionate speeches by the award winners reminded everyone of the importance of giving back.
