About Fillmore Outdoors
Fillmore Outdoors is an independent publication for people who spend their weekends on trails. We write about running, hiking, and lightweight camping — and, where relevant, doing those activities with a dog. Fillmore Outdoors is a publication of FLMOR Media, LLC, a Texas limited liability company.
Who this is for
Our reader is someone who's been doing this for a few years. They're past the "what is a base layer" questions and into the harder ones: which specific shoe is right for their foot and terrain, whether a new pack is worth the upgrade over their current one, where to plan a three-day trip in a particular month, how to train for a 50K. They read multiple sources before any meaningful purchase. They're skeptical of obvious affiliate fluff but will trust evidence-based recommendations from someone who clearly knows the gear.
What we cover
- Running — shoes, hydration, training, races, gear rotation.
- Hiking & day hiking — boots, packs, navigation, regional trail guides.
- Lightweight camping & backpacking — shelter, sleep, cooking, multi-day systems.
- Trail dogs — gear, conditioning, and trail etiquette for running and hiking with your dog.
How we're different
Most outdoor gear coverage is one of two things: comprehensive but opinion-light (read: lists of options without strong recommendations), or clearly written to maximize affiliate clicks rather than help you decide. We try to be the third thing — opinionated, technical when it matters, willing to say a popular product is overrated, and honest about where we make money.
