That was a good one! The 2026 Chili Chase saw 45 runners and 11 chili chefs all doing what they love for a good cause and supporting The Good Food Collective, Southwest Colorado . This year we teamed up with Durango Running Club who took the trail run to a whole new level, and back at the shop the chili field was SPICY. Thanks to everyone and one more shoutout to Manuel Guijarro for taking home the Chili Champion Belt.

Just think. In a few short months we could all be ice climbing.

We have got a nice selection of water treatment and purification systems. Whether you’re hopping on a trail to Vestal Basin or on a plane overseas, we’ve got what you need to stay safe and stay hydrated.

Words to camp by.

Sure that sleeping bag is rated for super cold nights in the mountains, but it’s only gonna perform up to its potential if you have a nice pad with a good R value.

Come into the shop and learn more about how to stay warm on cold nights.

What’s in your climbing pack?

The proof is in the pudding. Our Ops guy is mutant-strong, and when he says he’s going climbing, he means it.

We thought we’d ask him to share a few items he carries in his kit that could help us all load up better when it’s time to head out.

We love to talk gear and adventure, so if you’re looking for local knowledge, you found the right place.

Kinda gotta run for it with this weather.

All the things we love don’t stop when the seasons change. Just gotta layer up.

Dare we dream of a snowy winter with sunny powder days, nuking whiteouts and a snowpack that sets up well? Can’t hurt.

Rain anyone? Whether you’re just passing through or call it home, we’re Durango’s outdoor store with a huge selection of gear. Stop in, shake off the rain and get what you need for your next adventure.

What’s in your kit when you head out for a hike?

Those wool socks keep you warm even when they’re wet.

That rain shell can mean the difference between cozy and warm or wet and miserable.

A water filter will keep you hydrated, and sunblock for when the clouds break.

A light source is reassuring you if you find yourself out past dark. Headlamps are hands free.
