About Us

Our shop dog Motu is excited to meet you - come visit our historic general store, stocked with snacks, unique souvenirs, Colorado-made liquor and food, books, toys, and more! Now under new local ownership, we are undergoing some “reverse remodeling” of this old building to enhance the look and experience of an authentic old-style general store.

Living up to our heritage as an important backpacking resupply stop along the Continental Divide Trail, Colorado Trail, Collegiate Loop and a basecamp for 14er/13er hikers, the Store stocks hiker-oriented food, supplies, and services and accepts and holds resupply boxes. We are hikers ourselves and are here to help on your adventures.

PRODUCTS & AMENITIES

We’re your one-stop-shop for all travel and adventures needs! Browse our categories below for a breakdown of what products we have in stock. We do not have potable water to fill up water jugs or bottles, but we do sell 1-gallon jugs of Eldorado spring water. Nearby campgrounds are not expected to have access to their water spigots due to a major system renovation, so make sure to bring adequate water for drinking, dishes, and drowning your campfire.

We are unable to print fishing licenses. However, you may purchase a fishing license online through Colorado Parks & Wildlife.
