Best Places to Work in 2017

Each year, I publish a link to Outside Magazine's Top 100 Places to Work. I value this list because it focuses on companies that place a premium on employee health and happiness.
Here's one of my favorites:
51. Geocaching (Seattle, Washington)
Geocaching says it has more than 3 million active worldwide users searching for treasure in every country except North Korea. The 75 employees at company headquarters on Lake Union in Seattle wear shirts reading “I play where I work” and receive unlimited ski lift tickets, inflatable kayaks, and hiking equipment. Staff are required to get out of the office to go caching during work hours.
As a Seattle resident, I know just how happy Geocaching's employees are. Plus, geocaching as an employee of Geocaching is the ultimate dogfooding!
Check out the list to see if there's a great employer near you. Colorado is well represented, so if you live near Denver, you're in luck!
