We love going to work because nature is our office as well as our R&D laboratory.

TALUS is an outdoor product design and manufacturing company located in Missoula, Montana, whose owners share a passion for nature and conservation. We create and design unique products that help you enjoy your outdoor pursuits. We support our community, promote sustainability and accept our social and environmental responsibility by working with suppliers who respect the dignity of their workers and provide fair wages. Our products are people safe and earth friendly. TALUS supports CoolEarth, an international sustainability effort to protect rain forests for carbon sequestration (www.coolearth.org), and educational programs such as Globalwarming101 (www.globalwarming101.com). Join us in making a difference in our planet.

Our company’s philosophy is embodied in our chief operating officer, John B. Sullivan III, who at age 26 is a graduate of the University of Montana with a Bachelor of Science degree in resource conservation and minor degrees in philosophy and economics. John is an experienced outdoorsman, a professional guide on Montana’s rivers, and an expert skier. He has explored from the remote Bahamian islands and bonefish flats to Montana’s winter backcountry; he solo scouted wilderness rivers in Alaska where he later guided fly fishing clients.

 John believes that you should always be prepared to Stay Out Longer™.
