  AMH is the spot for local beta. Whether it's on the best spot for skiing or for the latest gear. Everyone there is knowledgeable and an advanced user of the products they sell. They work on my gear as if it were their own. If they don't carry something, they know where to get it.

  All the gear you need to get outside and it's locally owned. What's not to love?

  They have the specialized, pro-level gear for a reasonable price, and the service is the best in town. If you have something specific in mind, this place is an excellent choice.

  The staff is a very knowledgeable and helpful. They also informed me of upcoming sales on products I was considering purchasing so I could take advantage of the discounts.

  After a few years rambling around Anchorage, I'm upping my stars!
  
  The selection here isn't as large as REI (duh) but it's so well-curated as to be vastly superior.
  
  What do I mean? Picture two different Instagram/FB feeds:
  
  Feed 1: tons of obnoxious memes, posts bragging about hubbies/wives/babies, lots of trite political statements, blurry and pixelated photos of who-knows-what
  Feed 2: posts filled with value, gorgeous high-res photos suitable for framing, tips and information that add to your quality of life
  
  AMH is Feed 2.
  
  Again, the key difference between AMH and other outdoor shops is: CURATION.
  
  If you want to ogle 67 headlamps and spend 30 minutes deciding which one is the best, this isn't the place for you. This place will show you a handful of the best and explain which one might be objectively most-suited to your needs.
  
  Same goes for all their gear:
  Clothing
  Climbing
  BC Skiing
  
  It's also a great place to get beta on the mountains, the folks that work here really like to get out!

  Stopped in there while my wife was in a job interview. Staff is knowledgeable, experienced and friendly. Don't buy you're gear based on the advice from someone who learned about the stuff from a computer. The staff here are the real deal, qualified guides who spend loads of time out in the field. Get your gear here and you won't regret it
