about REI:

This is the place to outfit the family for a foray into the outdoors, whether it's hiking a 14-er, camping in the front range, or heading into the high country for a little skiing or kayaking. REI started out in 1938 as a humble cooperative and evolved into an upscale megastore for people who demand the best in outdoor gear.

Baby and kid stuff abounds: look for high-quality baby joggers, bike trailers, and trail packs; family camping gear; kids' bikes and helmets; performance footwear; skis and snow gear; rain gear, outdoorsy toys, and rugged, stylish clothes for kids of all ages (Patagonia, Cherry Tree, Gramicci).

Rent tents, backpacks, sleeping bags/pads, paddling gear, and snowshoes at the store. (Not all stores carry all gear.)

Stores have a full schedule of outdoor-related talks and programs. While these are primarily geared toward adults, the occasional family-related event is featured. Check REI's website for details.

tips:

Pay a one-time membership fee of $15 and receive a host of benefits, including reduced equipment rental charges and a yearly patronage refund on purchases.
