Hogback Trading Co. is a unique and beautiful store that offers a wide range of distinctive crafts, different from what is typically found in other trading stores. The owner, a wonderful and charming gentleman, is known for his kind-hearted and good-natured personality, which is a testament to the generosity of the Navajo community. Customers are impressed by the owner's extensive knowledge of the American Indian market and his ability to refer them to great craftspeople. The store is a treasure trove of information, with the owner sharing stories and providing detailed insights on the products, such as the importance of Pendleton blankets and the protection of arrowheads. Hogback Trading Co. is a must-see gem for visitors to the area.
Very fun talking to Tom Wheeler and hearing his stories about Shiprock fair from a long time ago.
