Any Denver area shops I should visit?

I'm going to be in Westminster tomorrow morning until Monday visiting family and was curious if you guys had any good shops to check out some back pack/ hunting gear?

Thanks

Rocky Mountain Specialty Gear in Arvada. If you're not into traditional archery, you probably will be once you leave. Tom is one hell of a nice guy to talk to.

Ya I think Kifaru just a few minutes from my cousins house so I deffanently want to try and go there. Didn't know you had a bass pro shop, so I will be hitting that and probably REI.

Thanks for the info.

Ya I've done this before it's pretty cool. My grandpa was the head diesel mechanic for coors back in the late 70's early 80's and his brother drove a coal truck from the mine to the plant, so I kinda have some family history there and really like going and checking it out.

I second Rocky Mountain Specialty Gear. Lots of knives, Wetterling hatchets and everything traditional archery. Tom can sharpen a knife like nobody's business, too.

Excellent timing on this thread. I am going to be in the Ft. Collins area the first week of July and have almost a full day to kill in the Denver area. Not sure I will be able to get the girlfriend to go to all the places that I would want to go. Any smaller breweries in the area worth touring?

New Belgium is in Ft Collins I believe. It's a state of the art facility.

Well I hit the wilderness exchange Thursday and really liked that store, but was really happy that I got into the REI garage sell at the Denver store on Saturday, couldn't believe I actually got a ticket in. Spent way more money then I wanted to but picked up some things at good deals.

Appreciate all the suggestions, will deffanently hit some more places the next time I'm down. Except for the flippin traffic I enjoy it down there.

Yeah I picked up a pair of 11.5 Vasque St Elias backpacking Boots for 40$ and some Superfeet for 10$ to go with it. Really awesome deal for 190$ boots. Glad I went on Sunday. They had everything 50% off sticker price on Sunday.
