I was surprised to find the doors open when I arrived there at 9:55 and by 10:30 I had my new tire installed and was on my way, saving the rest of my planned 3-day holiday weekend bike trip. They were extremely helpful, also fixing my chain that had jammed at the same time my tire was damaged.

Best Outdoor Deptartment Store in the Area…read more Scheels (not Scheel's, not Scheels All Sports) is an outdoor store - athletics, hunting, fishing, tennis, running, biking, etc. etc. They have a nice selection of good quality goods - really nothing cheap here, you will have to shop Wal-Mart for that. Gander Mountain is really much more a hunting/fishing store - Scheels focuses on all outdoor activities, including running, skiing, biking, etc. Great customer service - other stores should send their staff here for training. Polite, helpful, knowledgeable - from the cashier to the store manager. Overall, best retail experience in the Mall. It is in-between Macy's and the Food Court, right across from Chipotle (the Yelp maps are incorrect, at least as of 1-2-2016

Many long term employees here which says a lot about the company as well as making them a go-to source for experience. Customer service is always good. Yes, we can buy things cheaper online, but have appreciated having a real brick and mortar store with knowledgeable staff. Also appreciate the family oriented holiday closing schedule - our nation needs more quality family time...not more retail time.

If you have some unused gear from an overly ambitious Covid purchase, you should consider selling it to her. Fair negotiations.

The hills are alive with the sound of a Troll's call. Everybody who works here is just wonderful - part of the family. Trollhaugen pizza is the best pizza for you and me, positively. Snowboarding and skiing is an amazing experience here, love tubing too. If you're nervous about going, don't be, you got this. Love this place, highly recommend.

The teaching staff is excellent, as are the group lesson ratios, especially if you're in the ARC ski-racing program. Big airy bright base lodge with reasonable prices.

A few years ago I was fascinated with the multitude of machines making snow and thought more movie production companies should be using these machines to make a more realistic snow scene. At any rate the chalet is top notch there are scenic slopes and they are constantly updating the site. Urban development is creeping down from the north into Afton so enjoy the ride out here as a respite from cookie cutter developments and another Applebees before the snow hilly countryside is gone.
