Founded in 1969 by an avid winter sports-loving family, Ski Chalet is the kind of one-stop shop that skiing and snowboarding enthusiasts will be glad to have around. Though it's locally owned and operated, Ski Chalet has earned itself a national reputation, and rightfully so. The massive building on Sullyfield Circle is a towering testament to how much merchandise is stocked inside. Leading name brands like K2, Volkl, Nordica, Rossignol, Tecnica, Spyder, Mountain Hardwear, and others cover every facet of hardware and apparel. In the summer time, the store switches to "Patio Place" to sell patio furniture and equipment, but still keeps a good stock of its winter wonderland on hand.
