Looking for a little extra cash? Check out these five outdoorsy side hustle ideas to help get you more Benjamins in your pocket and spend more time in the great outdoors.

1. Become a freelance writer or photographer.

Those who are handy with a camera or a pen can get involved with part-time freelance media for the outdoors. You can sell your images and video on stock photo websites or pitch articles to your favorite publications (ahem, OutThere Colorado anyone?). It takes a minute to get established, but once you have a name for yourself and a good reputation you can get paid to document your adventures.

2. Build a noteworthy Instagram brand and following.

If you’re already obsessed with Instagram and you’re out doing cool adventures, it’s not too hard to build a big enough following and become an influencer. Get paid to promote brands and products in the outdoor space. Bonus points if you start a blog. There are several ways to make money with a blog from sponsored posts to e-courses and more. Be willing to put in a lot of elbow grease and extra time in front of a screen to make this happen.

3. Train to become a climbing guide.

If you would rather simply spend your side hustle directly in the outdoors, consider becoming a part-time ski or climbing instructor. Certified climbing instructors through the American Mountain Guides Association (AMGA) require different training courses depending on which kind of instruction appeals to you. The easiest way to rock the crag is to join a guiding service part-time.

4. Ski instructing is a great way to be outside on the hill.

For skiing and snowboarding, the process is similar; check with local resorts in your area for any required certifications. Expect to work weekends as an instructor because that’s when your clients will be ready to play.

5. Turn your gear obsession into a part-time job.

Lastly, pick up a gig at a local gear shop. Outdoor gear nerds will find their tribe at the many gear shops across Colorado. You can tune bikes and skis, sell tents, or fit hikers with the perfect boot. Although this job requires time spent indoors, it comes with a few perks. Most shops offer discounts for their employees, so you can pick up that dream item you’ve always wanted on the cheap.

The outdoor industry has plenty of opportunities for the self-motivated dirtbag. Get your side hustle on this season and score extra cash doing the things you love.
