My husband and I are going on a spontaneous camping trip next week and we weren't sure where we…read morecould buy gear here in Butte. I found Bob Ward's by searching Yelp and decided to check it out. It was very busy and they had a great sale going on. They carry so many items for all sorts of outdoor activities -- clothing, hunting gear, backpacks, water bottles, hiking shoes, layers like jackets and leggings, and so much more. I was able to find everything we needed, which was a huge relief. I was also able to order a few additional things I'd forgotten online and pick them up in the store the next day! Very glad that this place exists and I would definitely recommend checking it out if you need gear.

Good selection and friendly staff. Easy location to access when traveling. Ample parking.read more

Other departments might be great but Randy and others at the gun counter can't even get me in touch with Seekins to order a rifle base model. It is a tasteless company with rude employees and I recommend anyone looking for help to look elsewhere as far as guns go.

There is no clear signage and the clothes are not well organized. Kids clothes with men's for example. Trying to find women's section and my size was frustrating.

My husband and I went to the Helena Basecamp today to look at some Lems shoes. Upon arriving in the…read morefootwear department, we were immediately greeted by Victoria. It is clear that Victoria truly loves helping people find footwear that matches their goals. I discussed what I was looking for, and Victoria took that information and turned it into a shoe-finding spree! She brought out at least four pairs for me to try. She even brought out some shoes that she thought I might like based on what we talked about. My husband started talking to her, and wouldn't you know it, Victoria brought out some shoes for him, too. She never made us feel rushed or like she was trying to get us out the door. She even helped several other people while we were trying on our shoes, and all of them left with smiles on their faces. The Basecamp is so lucky to have Victoria as a stellar employee. We, as consumers, are even luckier to benefit from her extensive knowledge about footwear. We will definitely return to the Helena Basecamp for any future footwear needs. The world needs more Victorias! If you get a chance, go buy some footwear from Victoria at the Basecamp in Helena, Montana.

With wildfire smoke already making it hard on the system, extremely scented items are a no go for me. My family is in a camping road trip and would have likely spent $, but it turned us away.
