Love Celeste Love Celeste! Did a half-day climbing and learning to set up anchors, cams, and some lead climbing basics one-on-one. Celeste slowed down and re-explained things when requested, enthusiastically answered questions, and was an excellent climbing partner. She is very knowledgeable and loves the mechanics! I also found the folks working in the store / for booking my climb to be very helpful and friendly.

First Purchase from this Seller This was my first experience with Alpenglow. I felt they were very responsive to my correspondences with them. When the gloves did arrive, they were as advertised. My only tick off the star list not making it a perfect experience, was the delay in getting the gloves out to me. That may have been an anomaly. This will not discourage me in looking at them again for other gear.

Amazing deals Amazing deals, keep an eye on their emails, sometimes they'll surprise you with spectacular flash sales for the next 100 customers. Been raving constantly to all my friends about all the climbing gear since their last one.

Slow shipping, low inventory, terrible UI Shipping time was slow (2 weeks to receive), and the website is simply unusable. I've never seen a less usable search feature, and the item tagging is super inconsistent and not helpful (e.g.: when searching for a headlamp, using the tag "bright" returns a bunch of things that aren't related to headlamps). Consequently, your only real option to find what your looking for is to scroll through their entire inventory. I would give 1 star except they're a small business and likely don't have a ton of money to invest in technology, and because despite the terrible website they gave a 40% discount coupon which "saved" me money on gear I would not otherwise have purchased.

Alpenglow Adventure Sports -thumbs up! Alpenglow Adventure Sports has all that I am looking for in rock and ice climbing gear and supplies. The website is easy to navigate and my order was processed and shipped within a few days! I also found the staff highly knowledgeable and professional in assisting me with my gear selection(s).
