Nothing can kill a budding romance faster than being dropped by your date on a couple’s ride, or finding out he doesn’t own skis, a bike pump, hiking boots.

Fear not, activity-mongers – your gateway to love has arrived, and it’s in Colorado!

LuvByrd.com is open to everyone and free to join, but the dating site – which requires users to disclose their craziest outdoor adventure, favorite outdoor activity, and a bucket list – is focused on making matches in and around its Denver home.

According to Mike Keshian, CEO of LuvByrd, the plan is to cultivate a strong following within the Rocky Mountain State and expand the business westward before canvassing the country.

“If people are willing to pay $9.99 a month for Netflix, surely they’ll be willing to pay $9.99 at the chance to find love,” he said.

LuvByrd functions similarly to other dating sites, with potential matches selected by LuvByrd displayed based on similar interests and age.

Want a live love connection? The site hosted chairlift speed-dating at Loveland ski area this winter, pairing potential mates for a ride up the mountain and the option to ride down together (swipe right), or solo (swipe left).

While the site hosts extreme outdoors men and women who ice climb, fat-bike, and hang glide, it also recognizes (and supports) “patio lounging,” as well as “sledding around like a kid” and “building a snowman” as relationship-starting material.

Check out LuvByrd – especially if you’re in Colorado – to start finding outdoors love.
