montana…and the forgotten fuel can
The story of DropKamp is one born out of frustration. Coming back from an elk hunting trip, Andy realized that it was a logistical pain in the rear to plan a long trip with multiple parties involved. After a fuel canister was forgotten in the back of the truck miles away from camp - Andy realized there had to be a better way to plan out a trip and not go through the same hassle that he just experienced.
He had jokingly wished that someone could literally just drop into camp with his fuel can.
After coming home to Washington, DC, Andy had a brief conversation with an acquaintance about the whole trip to Montana - to which the person replied:
Wow. I wouldn’t even know where to start with a trip like that! I wouldn’t know how to plan it or what I would need. Sounds epic though!”
That statement ingrained itself into Andy’s mind and he kept pondering about the possibility of a business that would lend itself to bringing more people outdoors - without the stress of extensive prior planning
After a year and a half of different ideas, pitches, and copious amounts of coffee - DropKamp was born.
features that make your life easier
Leave the drama at home…
No one likes drama - especially when it comes to traveling. Be it friends, family, or your significant other, no one likes to bicker about who is supposed to research what. With the DropKamp app, users can poll, message, research, and compile all on one platform.
Never pull out those phone calculators again…
Having a hard time splitting that ridiculous bill for 12 wine bottles in Italy? Put the calculators away - DropKamp gives your group the ability to keep tabs on budget, expenses, and splitting up the cost of everything - from toothpaste to that fancy winery tour.
Decision-making…without the stress
“I don’t care where we go” or “It’s up to you guys” the two most annoying phrases in travel - ever. Indecision wastes a lot of time, time that you’re better off doing something awesome! With the in-app polling feature, your group can make decisions quickly and easily without the back and forth banter.
Run-N-Gun Mode
Not quite sure where to go once you get off the plane? Tap onto the map and set some waypoints for yourself and let the app recommend different restaurants, bars, activities, and tours. Feel free-spirited? Fly somewhere and tap onto a pre-made itinerary by one of our DropKamp Ambassadors or even one of your friends!
