I have not been here in about 15 years and Im glad I stopped by. They have all the brands the bigger outdoor store has but what sets this place apart for me is the cozy outdoor look and feel of the interior. My absolute favorite is the little cabin housing all the maps and guides. The staff were friendly and personable. My only gripe is that the prices are high just like the bigger outdoor store mentioned earlier. I know this is indicative of the industry as a whole which I do not like. Gripes aside they had the cord locks we needed so we are happy.

Simply put, I would trust these guys in having the right stuff at a good price. The sales staff was busy when I walked in, but when they got around to me, I could see why. They do things right and go through everything with you, there is no sales pressure, just straight talk, which is very much appreciated. The staff there was more than friendly and helped give me inspiration into doing amazing things outdoors. Adventure 16 San Diego simply cant be beat.

Staff is beyond knowledgeable on several trails, mountains, and outdoor activities in the area. They provide classes several times a month on activities and help guide you on the best routes. The product selection is top knotch and they carry some very popular brands. The price is a little bit higher than what Ive found online however the help from the staff and their recommendations are invaluable and I would prefer supporting this local shop.

Nice retail store for camping and hiking equipment. Staff not very acquainted with product knowledge such as pricing and warranty issues, staff had to keep asking each other and looking up information. Overall a good store, a little pricey, ($$$$), most of the products can be bought at Wal-Mart for well under half the price! Also after comparing the prices, I will stick with REI!

I always try to shop here before REI (I love REI). The staff is so helpful and friendky, and if they bug you too much, its not because they think you are trying to steal something, they want you to have all the help they can give. Its a small place, but the quality of all of their products is top notch! Please give them a try!

This place is COOL! You can find all kinds of things you need for advantures and camping. From sleeping bags, pads and camps to pans, knives and even egg holders. There are useful books and maps about national parks in United State. Hiking shoes, socks, hats, gloves, shirts and jackets are all over the store.

If youre looking for top of the line gear , this is the place to go . Face it when camping out roughing it so to speak going cheap is a bad way to go so forget walmart , the stuff here will last many camping trips rather than halfway through the first .

Place is amazing! Staff are all knowledgeable and are outdoor enthusiast themselves. Great gear selection. Its worth the expert advice over online purchases all the time. And their workshops and presentations are great community contribution.

Great team of people working there. I thought they would be much more expensive than online retailers but they had a great sale they were offering.
