Whether you’re still on the mountain or back home wishing you’d grabbed one more thing, the Bear Creek Adventures gift shop has you covered.
Stop in during your visit and browse in person, or shop online and ship straight to your door. Either way, you’ll find a thoughtfully stocked selection of souvenirs, apparel, and locally made goods — plus a few things you didn’t know you needed until right now.
We carry a little bit of everything. Locally produced honey, jam, and jelly from the region. Postcards and souvenirs to mark the trip. T-shirts, trucker hats, and jewelry. Educational toys like rock tumblers and crystal growing kits that make the gem mining experience something you can take home and keep going.
And a solid selection of gifts for people who are hard to shop for — because some of our hats basically describe a specific person in your life, and you’ll know exactly which one the moment you see it.
