    I have a soft spot for the local shops, so I stopped in here to get gear for my upcoming trip to…read moreUtah. The experience was decent, but you might be better off going to a larger store, depending on what you need. The chick at the counter was friendly and very helpful, so they get points for service. It's such a small place that they really only need one or two people to run it. Their selection is not very extensive, but they did have the small things I needed. So like if you're in the neighborhood and just need to pick up a new pair of hiking socks or a headlamp or something like that, Moose's Tooth should be fine. They also had several clearance racks for clothing. However, if you need something bigger or out of the ordinary, you'd be better off going to an REI or a Cabela's or a Scheel's or whatever you have in your area. Honestly, the biggest turn-off for me was price. I only bought one bag worth of basic hiking gear and it ran me up into the triple-digits. I do need them, and I wasn't able to get to a bigger store, but still. They are a little overpriced.

    Looking for an outfitter for climbing, hiking, camping, and kayaking? This little gem is a nice…read morelocally owned shop with lots to offer and a knowledgeable staff. Lots of choices from clothing to equipment in high quality brands. It's dangerous going in because I can always find something I want. The website needs some work and it doesn't do this place justice. Seriously just stop in if or call before you head to a big box sports store. It's small but it had more than you'd imagine.

    Best store in all of Nebraska!! All of the gear they have in store is supreme quality and is…read moreperfect for Nebraska weather! They always have amazing prices with lots of deals going on! I saw some reviews talking about customer service being bad or something like that but I've never had a problem. I shop there regularly and probably drop more than a grand each year between gear for myself and my family, to bday and Christmas gifts for friends! Always check out their clearance very thoroughly! I got a $250 jacket with Omni Heat Infinity for $70!! What a steal!! Like I said the staff is super helpful and always go above and beyond to help! It is an outlet store so they have a selection of products specific to outlet stores but they do occasionally get some really good stuff from online or other stores that sell as clearance. Always check it out whenever you get the chance because what they have in there is perfect for the weather from upf50 and omniwick shirts for those hot summer days all the way to heavy ski coats for winter fun!!!

    I wanted to score some winter attire here but I left the store empty handed. The quality of the…read moreitems just weren't up to pare with what I am normally use to from Columbia. They didn't have a ton of sizes and their prices was very unclear with regards to which items qualified for the sale and which ones were not. They didn't have a ton of backpack options, which was disappointing. Their men options were also limited. Also the staff didn't ask us once if we needed any help and most of them were at the front counter on their phones. Very unprofessional.

Unfortunately, I had a terrible experience when I back less than 24 hours later to return items. I was met by a very aggressive woman with glasses and a beanie. She told me she could not do anything for my boots return because I had worn them for one day, despite telling her they were super tight and hurting my ankles. She refused to call her district manager or customer service or anyone to get another opinion. She told me I needed to call customer service myself if I had an issue. She then tried to correlate my attempted return to the same as someone she dealt with prior that was arrested and in jail and tried to return the shoes with an unknown substance on them?? This woman clearly needs retrained and or removed from this position. She had ZERO empathy for my situation and seemed to be worried about a $225 return then making a customer happy. I know I am going to seriously reconsider future shopping at 5.11 because of her horrendous attitude and ability to be flexible and problem solve. I called customer service after I left the store and they immediately processed a return and refund. Wow, see there is an exception to most situations.

    I made a cash purchase on Thursday afternoon and returned the item on Friday morning. According to…read moreyour company policy, cash payments can only be refunded as store credit. However, my cash is currently in your register. I would appreciate your assistance in resolving this matter.

    Cool day trip, however, read the full thing. I had heard…read morethis was a cool day activity and had wanted to do it for over two years. John took me for my birthday in the middle of the week. He planned everything and was in contact with Brock, the owner who was super responsive and helpful. He sends out emails with information, packing list and makes sure the weather is good for tubing. When we got there, btw place is easy to find using his address, we signed a waiver and were loaded on a school bus. We were dropped off at a river crossing location and our tubes were attached as well as a tube for our cooler, we were given a paddle and that was all. We were on our own for this 4 h adventure down the river. I should pause to say most people that do this have a different plan and they usually have a big party with a big group and loud noise water guns etc. Our plan was a little different, more of enjoying the river and the scenery. The river itself is dark since the bottom is muddy so no clear waters, but it's clean, there are some tree branches here and there, but no trash itself. There are sandbars along the way where you can stop. The trip usually lasts about 4 hours which is significantly more than what I would've been on the tube if I would have had the choice. We applied sunscreen repeatedly and we still were pretty tan by the end of the ride. Bottom line: well organized and good idea, it gets 4 stars because the river is not the prettiest and the ride is too long (for my taste) maybe offering a half ride from like the bridge on Center might be a good idea. Oh, I almost forgot, bonus points: we saw our first bald eagle!!
