Summit Hut is a local outdoor shop with a great selection of hiking and camping gear. It is staffed by friendly, highly competent, and truly knowledgeable people who provide excellent, five-star customer service. The staff offers reliable advice and proper fittings for equipment like hiking boots. While not always the cheapest, the products and services are of the highest quality. The shop itself is a lovely modern log structure. It also offers hot pizza and huge cookies, providing a welcome relief from the elements. Summit Hut is highly recommended as the best place in Tucson for outdoor gear.
Great for desert hiking gear. Not much in stock for cold weather.

Only food available when the two restaurants are closed in tiny tourist settlement, yet the huge cookies and hot pizza were quite good, as well as a relief from the wind and freezing cold. Lovely modern log structure fits the area perfectly. Delightful staff even if one arrives to a line waiting on the observatory tour.
