. . . A Bit About Us . . .
Our Storefront — 309 Cedar Avenue
Located in the Cedar-Riverside area, Midwest Mountaineering is a Mecca for outdoor enthusiasts, providing the best gear and clothing for adventure travel, backpacking, canoeing, cross country skiing, frisbee golf, hiking, ice climbing, kiting, mountaineering, nordic skating, nordic walking, sea kayaking, rock climbing, telemark skiing, ultralight backpacking, and whitewater kayaking.
The store began thirty-seven years ago as a climbing shop. Since then, owner Rod Johnson and his staff have offered quality gear and expert advice in order to make your outdoor adventures enjoyable.
Stop by soon and see why Midwest Mountaineering was included in Twin Cities Magazine’s annual review of the 100 best things in the metro area and rated as one of the top 25 top independent outdoor specialty retailers in the country by Outdoor Business Magazine in 2007!
Throughout the year we offer clinics and programs, many free of charge, that inform and inspire. Test a canoe or kayak at one of our boat demos. Try your hand at nordic walking. Learn to wax those old cross country skis or what to wear when snowshoeing. We can probably teach you about sports you never knew existed!
