I was flying into Sacramento for a camping trip in Lassen Volcanic National Park for the weekend…read more We didn't want to go the other way for the REI in Sacramento, so I found Hermit's Hut in Redding. Couldn't be a better experience. We spoke to Dan (his name is Dan Geer - aka Danger), who said he would stick around after the store closed so we could get fuel for our camping trip. He couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. He showed us the gear he had on special order, made some recommendations on where to explore in the area, and helped us get our camping fuel long after his store closed. We had an excellent trip thanks to Dan. Highly recommend getting gear here if you're hiking or backpacking in the Lassen/Redding/Shasta area.
