Gear Guru Leaderboard

This page ranks everyone who has ever contributed lists / reviews / questions / answers / gear photos / comments / votes to Backcountry.com. Gear Gurus earn one point for each submission, and gain an extra point each time someone gives one of their contributions a thumbs up. BUT they lose a point for every thumbs down. Gear Gurus who put their necks on the line by using their real names, see their point total increase by 1.5x. Real names mean real community, and real community means real knowledge. For more info, check out the Help Center.
