Happy Monday. We are open today 10am - 5pm, embracing the “labor” part of this holiday.

I like to start my day with my 2nd cup of coffee by the lake. This morning I saw several ripples close to shore and as I adjusted my vision to find the fish nearby, this mink came on shore. We have met like this before and it’s always a treat for me.

It is a busy day in Eagle River.

Arts & crafts show plus sidewalk sales downtown.

Lion’s Club Sausage Fest in Riverview Park.

And a flea market at the fair grounds ? (Question mark because I only saw the advertising once.)

If you find time to squeeze us into your schedule, we have sales as well.

About time to transition from lightweight merino wool socks to midweight merino wool socks.

A long one - my sleep system!

-ThermaRest NeoAir XLite NXT Shorr
-Big Agnes Daisy Mae 15 degree sleeping bag
-Sea to Summit Reactor sleeping bag liner
-Enlightened Equipment booties and mitts
-Cocoon inflatable neck pillow

Let me know if you like the long explanations or would prefer shorter videos with quick gear lists. I *think* I’m getting better at talking a bit faster with less uhs but understandable if it’s not your cup of tea.

Re-stocked Opinel folding knives and new handle designs.

Three new handles for the National Park series in the ever-popular No. 8 blade.

Fillet knife we originally special ordered for a customer but were so impressed with the quality that it has become a staple in our knife case.

Happy Monday everyone!

Reminder that off-season hours start this week and we will be closed Wednesday. (I’ll update the FB schedule right after posting!)

The seasonal change means I’ve been focused on items to mark down lately.

Due to Tom’s shrewd purchasing in past winters, we are able to offer insane discounts on TerraMar base layers we’re not carrying any longer. Get them before they are gone.

Want 10% off regularly priced items? Don’t forget the Shopping Perks Program.

08/29/2026

Looks like the Car & Truck show is going strong despite the weather! It’s on until 3pm today (8/29).

If you are downtown and need a break from the crowds, we’ll be happy to see you.
