The greatest gear show on earth wraps today

The Outdoor Retailer Markets (one in summer and one in winter) are the outdoor gear industry’s biannual bruhaha. It’s basically a massive gear show with every major brand presenting their wares and launching new products. The summer market closes its doors today after a 4-day orgy for the geeked-out gear fanatic.
The gear industry seems to be doing fine (despite the bad economy) if the number of exhibitors at the show is any measure – a record this year. The outdoor press/blogger contingent turned out in force with more coverage than I’ve seen in the past. Some of Sierra Journal’s favorites were in attendence: The Gear Junkie and TetonAT were on scene. And the old standby’s were there too: Backpacker magazine has some great coverage. Trailspace.com and Rockclimbing.com are there too.
Here’s a complete list of new products rolled out at the show.
