My skin Dr. said stay out of the sun. Blair's hoodies are SPF-50, they're working great for me.
Thanks

Blair is the best. He has uniquely sourced outdoor gear in a tiny little gem of a space in Lone Pine, CA. A must stop ? if near Lone Pine.

Unofficial visitor center of the Eastern Sierra and simultaneously the best gear shop the region.
Like the outdoors? Like great people? Need intel on mountain conditions? Forget a trekking pole at home 4 hours away?
Go see Blair. You'll live and die much happier life. Seriously.

I dropped in this morning to check out this lovely store run by the friendliest guy. Amazing selection of all your hiking/mountaineering adventure needs, with great prices! I will definitely be back the next time I’m in Lone Pine.

Big Willi Mountaineering is the place to go for your mountaineering needs!The owner, Blair, is an avid mountaineer, friendly, very knowledgeable, helpful, and well connected to the Eastern Sierra mountaineering community!He is a great source of information about current conditions, and an expert in mountaineering gear!During our time in the Kearsarge Lakes area, my daughter and I talked about our great experience at Big Willi, and made a plan to go back again when we came out.We had purchased some items from Big Willi that we did not need or use, as we did not reach the location and altitude we had planned, and Blair was happy to allow us to exchange them for some other items we knew we would use later.Blair offered us coffee in the morning - that is a first ever for me in a mountain shop!Bought a custom Big Willie sun hoodie with store logo and wore it driving home. Works great!This is the store and experience you have been hoping to find!

The owner here is an absolute gem! He helped me out by finding me a pair of shoes for my last week on the PCT. Definitely worth a visit to support this small biz.

What a great vibe! Blaire was so helpful to me and my friends and gave us great hiking advice. He had everything you need and I'm obsessed with my new shirt. Thanks Blaire!
