Truly a treasure and privilege to visit. Not only is it…read moreprivately owned and operated, it also is filled with the products that are exclusive to real outdoorsman and bespoke with actual quality goods that meet the highest standards. The staff is knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. Most importantly; they're enthusiasts. They know their products, and are passionate. You will not find big-box commercial items here. Only well-crafted goods that are heirloom quality to last a lifetime. The axes, hatchets and knives are lifetime investments, and the footwear selection is unbeatable. I drive an hour to come shop here, passing every other commercial "outdoor" store and smile as I do it. It's a treat to be a customer, and you'll know when you first step foot in the place.

My husband packed for our trip to black mountain in a rush and forgot to put his shorts in his bag…read more I'm sure they are sitting on our bed back in Charlotte, meanwhile it's in the 80s in Black Mountain this week. On a recommendation from our super nice server at The Open Oven restaurant, we stopped in to Take a Hike to grad a pair from him. We we happy to see that they allow pets/dogs in the store so that one of us wasn't stuck in the car with the pups. The store has tons of great clothes, shoes, socks and other supplies you might want for hiking. Big names like Prana, North Face, Patagonia etc. He got a pair of shorts from the clearance section and I found a handy Kavu sling purse. Win-win

Great local outdoor store. Love shopping local and how chill this place is…read more Upon entering, staff always greet you. Small town feels. There is typically plenty of parking in the lot or nearby. Standard small town hours. The shop is clean and organized. They have a good sampling of outdoor gear. Lots of seasonal clothing, some camping gear and backpacks and some Knick knacks such as hydration tabs and stickers. There is a sale rack in back. Everything is very pricy as goes with outdoor gear shops especially small ones. I would still argue that it's pretty similar to the standard- not more expensive than REI or the like. I'd definitely recommend this place for a stop in. They have a nice curated selection. Plus it's always the season for a fun new outdoor toy to inspire you to get outside ;)

This shop used to be my guy's favorite shop when he lived in the area…read more It was my first time into a mountain sports shop, so while my guy and one of the staff talked and apparently reminisced, I looked at the photos, at the merchandise and everything inside. There is SO much stuff to look at. There are so many different levels of gear. For me it was overwhelming.

In Blowing Rock, NC this is the place for outdoor and hiking gear and shoes. Those Keens caught my…read moreeye as my wife and I went inside. A minute or two for a separate staff person to come help us, as another staffer was there in the shoe area. A couple of try ons (as my shoe size in Keens can be 11 or 11 1/2) and I was ready to go; however, my wife who initially did not look the look of the bubble toe on the Keens (for women or men) was finally talked into trying a pair of Keens on and walking around in the shop. Comfort for her, and thus a pair of Keens for her and, of course, one for me. My last Keens were bought here about 6 years ago, are still quite comfortable and not showing wear, but sometimes you just have to spend a dollar or two and get more comfort, right? Yep.

The products here have always been of good quality and there's always a great selection. This store brand has always been a sort of a novelty in my opinion although the description is "general store" all but one location I have visited is very upscale and resembles more of a general merchandise retailer offering lots of clothing and outdoor supplies verses what the original intent was at its inception. It's a great place to browse and find something unique - the staff here was very friendly and engaging it's worth stopping in...
