    stopped in to pick up an archery target, staff was incredibly nice to me and my 3yr old that kept…read morerunning around, awesome local spot that is actively looking for input, if they don't have it they are willing to get it brought in, give the guys a call before wasting the gas to go all the way to flagstaff!

    Bottom Line - Customer Service was out of this world…read more My family and I planned a trip starting in Vegas, and then we were going to go to the Grand Canyon to hike to the bottom then out. Some things that were weren't fully prepared for was the snow storm that had come in and all of the ice on the trail. (Being from North California, we don't really expect the desert to have snow). We found out a few days in advance so made plans to get some YakTracks or spikes for our shoes. Most sporting stores don't carry them, and when they do, they are expensive. While calling around we found this store. We were told that they had them in stock and they opened at 8am Sunday morning (this was reconfirmed). Come 830 the store was not open. Were were ready to give up and give this one star and a bad review. When a local, who knew the owner, heard about our situation. They called the him, and he came and opened his shop. Apparently they had changed to winter hours, and that he was not the one who confirmed hours on the phone. Once we were inside of the shop, he helped us get the missing gear we needed, and told us about the trail conditions. He was genuinely concerned about our safety and well being, and even asked us to contact him is we had any kind of trouble while in the park. Once we left the store, (I went from being personally prepared for any situation, to extremely anxious at what to expect), we felt like we were in a better state. Thank you so much for all of your help. I really appreciate it. And to the local who made it all happen- thanks to you as well, we had an amazing hike and got out safe. Couldn't have done it without this store and the service we received. My family forgot all about the issue with the time.

    Houston, we have a problem. Race Outfitters, we have a solution!…read more Amazingly helpful and knowledgeable staff. They're particularly helpful with handicap accommodations suggestions. My hubs has a condition that causes shakiness and instability. They were so cordial and acted like that was no big deal and were able to offer solutions for him to be able to do XC with me. Huge selection of everything you could possibly need or want for a day of snow fun. They do complete rentals and of course sales as well. Prices and policies were reasonable. I would definitely use them again. Thank you for helping us to have the perfect trip!

    I came to Flagstaff on MDW for one reason, and one reason only - to hike to the top of Humphreys…read morePeak. I'd been keeping an eye on the reviews on All Trails (one of the very few features I actually like on that app, but that's a story for another day) and knew several weeks in advance that snow on the mountain was a distinct possibility. When I made eye contact with Humphreys two days before summiting and literally saw tons of snow from about 60 miles away - along with very recent reviews warning about it - I knew I had to make a pit stop beforehand. It would PROBABLY be an exaggeration to say Peace Surplus saved my life, but without it (and its supplies), I don't think I get to the top of Humphreys Peak, or even close. I stopped by last Sunday, the day before my hike, knowing that I needed to get some type of traction on my hindpaws. I considered getting poles (which I've been mulling for years - we're getting close there), but the spikes for the hiking sneakers seemed paramount. I located them very easily right off to the side of the shoe section. I honestly don't know if $62 for these is insane or not, but they made the difference the following day so I can't sit here and say they aren't worth it. An absolute gamechanger, and something I can use going forward in less dramatic adventures if there's icy/snowy conditions afoot. Beyond my primary purchase, I was very intrigued by the little food/grocery store section off to the side by the entrance. It has a lot of hiking snacks that can usually be procured easily at a gas station (cough cough Clif Bar cough cough), but also the ones that are a bit harder to find without Amazon's help, like the Honey Stinger waffle, which for sure came in handy the following morning. There's a definite emphasis on overnight camping/thru-hiking, so there were quite a few freeze-dried dinners, etc. as well. It was an impressive selection. Everyone here was super friendly and nice. The people at the register immediately looked around for another potential customer to ring up the minute they were done with their prior patron, and several times I could overhear presumably managers spitballing how to allocate their staff based on where the immediate needs were. While I was in there, a few employees were outside handling a holiday sale, I believe, so I imagine it gets a little tougher to gameplan when literally some of your people aren't even in the store. No wasted energy at this place. I don't feel like I did more than skim the surface of what this store offered, but they had what I wanted and needed in the moment, and for sure they get some credit for my successful Humphreys ascent. Give Peace a chance.
