I have been shopping at this store since 2001 when I attended graduate school at SIU. I have so many items from that store that are still going strong today! Rick is off the charts with his updated knowledge and history about all the products and the companies he deals with. Back in the area today after being gone since 2011 and he still has the best brands at a reasonable price. I bought a kayak today and he loaded it on my roof which was not equipped nor did I have anything to tie it down and make a 4 hour trip back to Kentucky. He handled everything with kindness and my kayak never moved on top of my car for 4 hours! Love the service
And his honesty regarding all of his products! He handles the best brands always! Highly recommend this sporting goods place as I keep coming back after all these years! Thank you for your dedication to the outdoor adventurous folks!

Stopped in to check out hiking shoes. Didn’t end up buying anything, but got to talking to the guys who work there and they were very friendly and helpful with recommendations on great hiking places nearby. Lots of knowledge about the area and a great little shop for hiking/climbing/camping/paddling.

I'm a general contractor and my roofer left me holding the bag on a job so I needed some climbing gear. We definitely use different equipment buy the guy helping was very helpful and got me lined out. I then remembered I was heading to Coyote Gulch in Utah for backpacking for 2 weeks and needed hiking boots. They definitely had boots waaaay out of my price range but they had size 14 and because of the guys helpfulness I went ahead and purchased them. Let me tell you this, I didn't have time to break them in, a few days later I found myself carrying an at least 50 pound ruck down a wash to get to the gulch in the best pair of boots I've ever worn. I'm so glad I bought them. Keep up the great work.

Great store! I've bought several pairs of hiking boots here over the years as well as camping equipment. Rick is incredibly knowledgeable. He recommended the best travel coffee maker that is so good we end up using it at home.

Small store but packed full of goods for the outdoors. Any hiking, trail running, camping, paddling and climbing gear you need in a great locally owned store. Check them out.

Locally owned by humans! Not to many stores like this left with the takeover of the internet so if you need outdoor gear or super nice canoes go here and give uncle Jeff your scrilla when you need soap.
