The idea for Base Camp Legends was sparked by a random comment about creating a hunting and fishing magazine that focused on hunting big game in the Western United States. After tossing the idea around for a few months, co-founders of Base Camp Legends, Gary Sorenson and Tom Sorenson brought their idea to a friend and marketing guru, Justin Foster. Justin’s immediate impact was to sway the Father-Son team of Gary and Tom to pursue a website rather than a magazine. The idea was born to create a website completely devoted to giving hunters, fishermen, campers, hikers, and people who love the outdoors in general, a place to tell their stories and share their memories.
