Great Company--- Even Better Products

Guess you missed all of the links above to their wanting to actively restrict your access to use your rig off road?

If REI had their way, you would never be able to do this again:


IF that's OK with you, then keep on supporting an anti-OHV access company.

REI sucks IMO. I used to be a big fan, back in the day they carried more brands, and were about real campers. Wasn't profitable enough so now when you go in to a store they have knicknacks and junk stuff like pocket knifes, water bottles and stuff for yuppies. The few real camping items they carry are extremely overpriced.

If you need real camping gear get a campmor catalog (google). This little black & white paper book is where many of everest expedition and field stations get gear. Just make sure if you order something you either understand it, or get training... (the advantage of in store purchase)

I worked for the company back in 2000 and they make some high quality gear. I would put them up against some of the top manufacturers in the business. If you become a member of the co-op and you but REI gear. You will get money back at the end of the year to spend in their store. Awesome company to work for also.
