Gear For Adventure is the place - Quality clothing, footwear, and gear focused on hiking, snowshoeing, kayaking, etc. AND locally owned and operated. Great selection, great prices - sales folks are knowledgeable and have thankfully provided recommendations for items that I've greatly enjoyed for years! Take your chances at the chain stores or get the "right item" for your outdoor activity at GFA.

I read that review about those "Darn Tough" socks and since I've slowly been collecting warm socks…read morefrom outdoor stores this winter as a 'hobby', I decided to visit Aurora Outfitters at last!! I've been itching to check out this store, and I'm really not sure why I never ventured in here sooner. Maybe it just wasn't the right time. This past year my urge to hike has kicked into overdrive and lately I've been all about outdoor activities - so going in here not only cured some boredom, but got me excited for the warmer months and getting back out on the trails. The shop shares a building with another business. Once you go up the steps and into the building, the shop is straight back (and pretty hard to miss with the signs!) This shop is pretty large, with everything and anything to fill your outdoor needs. Tons of apparel with popular outdoor brands like Carhartt, hiking boots, and other useful gear for camping and hiking. You can get snow shoes and chains here for your winter hikes, and there's even some gear for your dog! I only came in here for the socks but I also left with these cool fake "skipping stone" dog toys, and a double sided spoon/fork. Total score! Looking forward to returning in the summer to fulfill more of my hiking needs. P.S. I love my socks. They're stylish and keep my feet warm!

I read a Review of the Day from Hannah K. about "Darn Tough" socks, and it reminded me about those…read moresocks I bought from Aurora Outfitters so long ago. I must have written that review way before I gave myself enough time to decide if I liked the socks or not, but here I am 4 years later and I now EXCLUSIVELY WEAR DARN TOUGH SOCKS. Thank you, Aurora Outfitters, for turning me onto these wonderful socks. Also thank you, past tense me for clairvoyantly deciding to purchase said socks and change my life forever. But most of all, thank you, present me for having the courage to admit I was wrong and seek amends. (And an honorable mention also to Hannah K. for reminding me just how much of an oaf I really am)

Love Cabela's for many reasons. First, I always find something good when I'm here. They often have…read moreincredible sales. Sometimes I just wander around the store to see what's interesting. Items are arranged quite well and each area of the store brings little surprises. The camping area is fun for people who like to cook and barbecue - neat gadgets too. Wander around and you'll find that they even supply hiking poles and other outdoor gear. Often times, it does take some looking and some "trying on" when shopping for clothes. This is where Cabela's could do better. However, clothing items are priced well and have lasted many years. Sizing is not always consistent and there are only two fitting rooms in women's/men's departments. often you'll find yourself waiting just to try on items. Also, fitting rooms need to be cleaner with better lighting and 3-way mirrors. All that aside, Cabela's can be quite a joy.

I'm a little late to the party, as the Made in America Store is scheduled to close in the near…read morefuture. Everything in the store is 90% off. And granted most of the merchandise is very picked over. However, I was able to score some nice pullover hoodies for only $2.50. Men's hats (lids ) were all going for $.50 each. There was a myriad of ladies golf polos, all at $.50 and mostly in the smaller sizes, and the colors were limited to white or navy blue There were plenty of children's polo shirts, and the colors were pink, white, or navy blue. Again only $.50. I was on the lookout for hoodies for my elementary school boys, and I did find their sizes for only $.50. So if you're adventurous, and you're in the Elma area, you might wanna get over there and see what they got left. But don't wait too long, as the store will be closed for good.

The coffee place inside Adventure Bound was cute. It was definitely pricy though. (It was just under $16.) I ordered a mocha and the employee made the foam into a heart shape.

I ordered a chocolate one, a strawberry one, a latte one. I also ordered maple candy, which wasn't bad. I'm not a big fan of this restaurant.
