Ordered a very fragile ice rod online. It was shipped right away and packed very well.

Didn't know what to expect on our visit, but the staff was fantastic and the selection was impressive for the space.

Google review of our store

Six pieces for your first night in a tent

This kit covers one person's first night out, at a park campground or a campsite you hike to. It holds a sleeping bag made for nights as cold as -10°C, a foam pad, a stove with its own pot, a headlamp, a filter for lake water and a tent. The stove needs a fuel canister, sold separately. The tent sleeps two, so a friend with a bag and pad can share it. Already have a pad or a stove? Untick it before you add the kit.
