Custom Tailored Approach
Every mountain is different, every resort is different, and every community is different. As such, it is MTN LAB's job to tailor the planning, program design, and overarching strategy to address the specific challenges and express the specific charm of each individual mountain resort and community.


Our Mission
MTN LAB is a laboratory for re-membering into our relationship with nature. It gives us a place as modern humans to reimagine what our role in our ecosystems can look like, to learn and relate with the other beings that we share this world with, to deepen our reverence and respect for the natural world, and re-acquaint ourselves with our basic humanity. It provides space for all walks to engage with and deeply learn radical stewardship of place. What does it look like when we decide (as the general public) to actively participate in our local ecology as agents of abundance? Mountain Lab is how we find out.
