Each Month We Highlight Great Gear From Our Stores!

The Berkshire and Litchfield Hills in Western Massachusetts and Northwestern Connecticut provide some of the most scenic and varied hiking and camping in the entire country. The Appalachian Trail is located less than a mile from both of our retail stores, and state forests and parks in the area are criss-crossed with numerous hiking trails. Recreational opportunities abound. Why not spend a night or two in peaceful solitude under a canopy of maple, birch or hemlock, next to a sparkling trout stream, or under the stars? Has your family ever experienced the pure joy of sharing stories, singing songs or making "s'mores" in front of a roaring campfire?
