Island Of Misfit Gear


After 8 weeks in business, OAR is quickly turning into The Island Of Misfit Gear
We've got everything from gun holsters and bow cases and fishing rods, to base layers and Columbia jackets and sleeping bags.
We've got skis and boots and fleece tops. 
In baskets and on stands we've got neck warmers and ear warmers and gloves and hats.
I picked up a Columbia down hunting jacket the other day (reversible - camo and hunters orange, full zip and storm flap). 
It is now hanging on a rack beside a Winchester hooded and fleece lined camo hunting jacket, and a Cabelas camo hunting jacket.
And that's only a small sample of what we are beginning to collect.
When I think back on the past couple of weeks, we have sold a variety of gear that included ice skates, antique snow shoes, an elk cook book, a gun rack, a Campmor fleece, and a Columbia winter jacket.
Pictured above are the following:
1.  Pair of Fischer cross country skis
2.  Tsunami sweater
3.  Oxygen Element 580 snowboard (152) - without bindings, has a few scratches but no major dings, and graphics on both sides are still in great shape
4.  Large framed black and white picture

Drop by the store to check us out, and if you have gear just gathering dust in your garage that someone else could make use of, consider consigning it and giving it a new lease on life. 
Our winter hours are Wednesday through Saturday 9am-5pm.
