In this episode we sit down with Lincoln Walters. He is the visionary for WNC Outdoor Collective, and owner of Black Mountain Adventure Apparel, a company that provides well-crafted, versatile apparel that inspires a mountain-town lifestyle of adventure. Join us as we discover how Lincoln’s vision for producing apparel inspired by Black Mountain and the Blue Ridge Mountains, quickly expanded to the creation of a gathering place for local & regional outdoor gear makers, retailers, enthusiasts, and adventurers. The result, a unique destination hub where consumers can have direct access to numerous local gear builders in one place, and a meet up where people can grab a coffee or shot block before their group ride or run and enjoy a nice craft beer after their adventure.
