First it's the peaks. Then a teaser of snow in town. Then, before you know it we're blanketed in the white stuff and the temperatures plummet. We're ready for winter. Are you? Swing through Northern Lights and get stocked up. Brand new winter clothing, footwear and ski gear are here, including the time-tested stand-by's and exciting new brands and styles.

Stay warm, but look cool with brand new fall casual wear from Horny Toad, Kuhl, Mountain Khakis, Patagonia, Prana, Ibex, Icebreaker and more! This is mountain wear at its finest. You don't have to look like the sasquatch to keep from freezing your fur off this winter. Let our staff of fashionista's dress you for pray-for-snow party success.

Sherpa Adventure Gear is inspired by the Sherpa people who have given so much to the sport of mountaineering. If you've ever been to the Himalaya you know that the Sherpa are incredible humble and hard-working. It is with this spirit that Sherpa Gear is created. Check out this new line for Northern Lights and tell us what you think!

Gore-Tex makes the strongest, lightest, longest-lasting waterproof-breatheable fabrics on the planet. And as long as you wash them, they usually outlive your taste in color. Check out our lineup of Gore-Tex jackets and pants for the fall, including Patagonia (yes, Patagonia), Arc'teryx, OR and gloves from Black Diamond, Arcteryx and Outdoor Research.

Brand new ski gear from Atomic, Fischer, Marker and Volkl, with more on the way. The 2011-2012 stuff looks really impressive this year. We had a chance to demo it all at the end of last season and we picked the best skis, boots and bindings to bring in this season. Flex some skis, try on some boots and fondle some bindings. Get excited...it's almost ski season!

Thinking about Dynafit? Unconvinced? Love their bindings but never tried a Dyanfit ski? Discover the wonders of Dynafit at the Northern Rockies' only Dynafit Test Center - right inside Northern Lights! Try out boots, skis, bindings and skins. Rent different pieces or try a super-light Dyanfit touring package. (Demos available only after adequate snowfall.)

Don't tell the Main Store. They're all amped about skiing even though it's 80 degrees out. I don't know what they're thinking...it's still boating season man! There's plenty of places to hit the water. Just don't tell No. Lights we said so. We don't want them to feel bad or anything. Hey, we like skiing too. Just not while there's still moving water! Check out our boating gear here.

Check out the official fall hours below. But here's the skinny. We're going to be closed Sundays and Mondays until spring. BUT we're happy to arrange to open the store by appointment. So give us a call while we're open at 585-2090 and let us know when you want to stop by. We're still the best-stocked boating store in Montana, even in the winter!

You've gotta admit, our backyard is pretty cool. But it's impossible to know everything there is to do in Bozeman. That's why we've dedicated a portion of our website to all things outdoors. We get questions like this every day in our stores: "Where can I go climbing?" "What's the best place to paddleboard? I'm just learning." Jump online & find your answers!
