At Mountain River Roots, we believe what you put on your skin should come straight from the earth. Our outdoor line is handcrafted in small batches with a deeply nourishing, minimalist base of Montana Ranch Raised tallow, pure beeswax, and organic jojoba oil—simple, purposeful ingredients made for life outdoors.
Whether you're protecting your skin from the sun, keeping pests at bay, or giving tired muscles and joints some post-adventure care, our Backcountry line is made to go wherever you do.
🌿 NEW! Backcountry Recovery Balm — Adult Strength 🌿
When the adventure is over, give your hardworking body a little extra care.
Our Adult Strength Backcountry Recovery Balm combines nourishing tallow with menthol and arnica to provide a refreshing, cooling sensation while helping soothe tired, sore, and overworked muscles and joints. Arnica has traditionally been used to support comfort after everyday bumps, bruises, and physical activity.
Perfect for:
Post-workout and physical activity
Tired, overworked muscles and joints
Long days of hiking, hunting, fishing, or working outdoors
Massage and post-adventure care
Keeping in your backcountry pack, gym bag, or bedside table

Defend your skin from UV rays with a physical barrier of non-nano zinc oxide in a convenient, mess-free stick.
🪵 Tick Stick — Outdoor Bug Defense
A convenient, swipe-and-go stick designed for outdoor adventures when you want an extra layer of botanical bug defense.
Adult Strength: A robust blend of plant-based ingredients selected for serious time in the deep woods.
Family Strength: A gentler formula designed with younger adventurers in mind. For ages 8 and under; for children under 5, we recommend testing a small amount on the feet first.
🌿 The Power of Our Base
