NOTHING AGAINST CARDBOARD, BUT OUR FLAGS ARE SIMPLY BETTER
5ummit 5omething was born out of the idea that the outdoors have something to offer everyone, no matter their skillset, and the opportunity to experience the thrill of accomplishing something that seemed out of reach.
We know cardboard summit signs are popular for summit pics. But, here’s the thing: cardboard signs don’t put in the same work for you that you do for them. Oftentimes, they get crumpled in your pack, or worse, left behind. If you find one at the top, it may not even have the right elevation listed.
That’s why we work with artists to custom-design lightweight, packable, and durable summit flags as a better way to commemorate the climb.
More than a sign, a flag is a symbol of belonging, not just to the hiking community, but to your own journey, and to the trail stories that shape you.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
WE’RE A FAMILY-OWNED BUSINESS & WE STAND ON OUR VALUES 🗻
The team behind Summit Something is a close-knit family of five known to get outside whenever—and however—possible. In 2021, when hiking in Colorado, we noticed the cardboard summit sign trend… and not in a good way.
We watched people at the summit hold up their cardboard signs for a photo, then, sadly, leave them behind. The pile of discarded old signs made us think there had to be a better way to commemorate the big summit moment.
As a family who celebrates our wins together, and who challenges each other to keep shooting for the next summit, we created Summit Something—a company that helps hikers capture their milestones without leaving anything behind.
Whether it’s for your friend, family or for yourself, our flags are next-level awesome gifts for hikers who geared up, packed their backpack, and did the dang thing.
