Desert Rock Sports is thrilled to announce that Hans Florine will be doing a presentation on his mission to hold the speed climbing record on The Nose of El Cap this Friday, February 28th at 8 p.m. at our store! We are also excited to let you know that we will be launching our consignment shop inside DRS on the same day! From 6-8 there will be complimentary drinks and snacks, and we will have a 2 hour only mystery sale, with details unveiled at 6, that you will need to be here for! Come on by the new Desert Rock Sports and enjoy an evening with us and with the fastest human to climb the most famous route in the world! This is a free event but please bring your own camp chair for the show!

Bump for a very good retailer.

Short version of a longer story: I made a purchase from DRS over the phone and had it shipped to my home. Something went wrong during shipping. Without boring you with details, they could have told me tough luck, and left me to try to get compensation from the shipper. Instead, they took me at my word that I didn't get my gear and shipped me another piece free of charge. Try that with REI! They went WAY over the top and earned my business for many years to come.

DRS = independently owned good people who climb, great selection of gear, happy to share beta, supports the local climbing community and AWESOME customer service

Give these guys your business!

Another bump for a fantastic business and boon to the climbing community!

Along with the impressive gear selection --I was stoked to be able to get a new green alien there when my old one crapped out mid-trip-- these guys have been super enthusiastic supporters of my Red Rocks artwork(original wood murals such as the one you'll see on the wall of their new shop space.) Thanks, Travis!!

I can attest to Sherri's work--look at the bristlecone she did for me. . .

FYI, Sherri is working on another Red Rock Mural featuring a climber hiking into Mt. Wilson and Oak Creek. We will have it on display at the shop sometime this spring and it will be for sale!

I happen to be in LV for a conference and would love to attend this event. Will anyone be driving by the strip on the way there? If you think you might be able to pick me up send me a text 774-253-two zero six four.
Thanks!

Wow, those murals are incredible. I might just pop in to see it in person...and pick up something miscellaneous. Localization station!

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
