Chaletan Reviews

Anton A

This place is great for backcountry ski and climbing enthusiasts. They spent a lot of time to educate me on a range of A/T bindings. Thank you for also being dog friendly. Your shop really feels like a business that is passionate about its service and the community.

I HIGHLY recommend a visit to Mountain Chalet, especially if you are looking for any variety of footwear or climbing gear. The staff there are incredibly approachable, knowledgeable, and patient. Mountain Chalet in my book is a standard-bearer for local Colorado Springs businesses.

Griffin, you're the climbing shoe guru! Thank you so much for the righteous climbing shoes (our first pair) and teaching us so much that we never knew. My wife and I are absolutely stoked on the shoes we were recommended and we've never had such a thoughtful, educational, and professional shopping experience.

We came in to buy some Ruffwear boots for our dog. The entire staff was so knowledgeable and friendly. Great customer service. We signed up for the loyalty program and love that they offer military discount! We will be back!
