Wild Iris Mountain Sports

The best place in the area for outdoor gear and general clothing. The store is full of mid and high-end gear for: climbing, camping, backpacking, hiking, and exploring. There are also guidebooks, clothes, winter gear, footwear, snacks, trail foods, trail cooking tools, maps, knives, compasses, water bottles, etc. The staff are also highly knowledgeable about the area's outdoor recreation.

Great discount rack! Got Mountain Hard Wear pants for a good price. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Thanks for stocking bear spray

Always a great selection of quality gear AND the most friendly and helpful staff you'll encounter anywhere! Everyone who works there LOVE what they do (both at work and at play!).

Awesome selection of gear and a huge resource for all things climbing! This place is a MUST VISIT if you are anywhere near Lander WY and its even worth it as a destination! We love these guys (and ladies)! If you are within 100 miles of Lander, stop in and get the gear you need. We did!

We always go here when we need gift ideas for our friends that are outdoors types

I didn’t realize when the store closed, and was there 10-15 minutes after closing. The two guys working were so nice and stayed late. They were very kind and helpful and said they will help me pick out the right climbing shoes next time I come. There’s nothing like small town kindness. Also, the recent 50% off sale was AMAZING. Love this shop and how they welcome everyone.

This is our 4th summer coming to Lander, and we make it a point to stop in Wild Iris every time. Ok, several times every trip 😉 They've got a great selection of gear and clothing and yeah, some may be on the expensive side but it's high quality. I feel it's worth it tho, bc the staff are always above & beyond helpful. Not pushy, just willing to stand there and answer all your questions. We're happy to support this lovely, local shop! 💜

Great store with good prices and local knowledge. Super friendly employees. You can buy the permit to drive through the Indian Reservation to the Dickinson Park area is Wind River Range here.

This shop was such an amazing surprise to stumble upon during a road trip through Lander. It has all the best items within pretty much any category you desire. Think REI, but less options because they've already curated the best things for you. Ended buying way more than I intended and might go back this week to look through their clothes even more!

Every staff member here was helpful in a unique way; they compliment each other very well! All of our Wind River alpine questions were answered thoroughly and worries put to rest regarding water treatment, safe insect repellent, climbing gear, you name it. My boyfriend and I were so thankful to be able to get everything for our trip squared away at one friendly place. I felt like we were talking amongst friends. So happy to give a business like this our support. Days later, I called in to order a tension board that is back ordered for weeks on the original website and the staff was once again friendly and helpful as can be. I so appreciate the care! We will absolutely be back!

Good selection of quality outdoor and climbing gear. A stop for many on the CDT.

Great staff who went above and beyond to help me. I got there right at closing time and was desperate. I came in from out of town and hadn't had time to get some new hiking boots after destroying my vasques the week before. I had a field trip for work the next day and all I had was some walking shoes which I blew the toe out earlier that day. The staff saw my desperate situation and stayed a half hour after. I never felt rushed out the door. They were genuinely trying to help. I have very small feet and they didn't have my usual size so they dug around the back and brought out the smallest sizes they had. We finally found a pair that worked. They really saved me that day! They are also very reasonably priced. The boots I got were cheaper at wild iris than they were on Amazon!

Helpful friendly staff! However I stopped because they had a Pride flag in the window. I really try to support any local business that goes the extra mile to be welcoming and affirming!

I stopped in to stretch my legs while driving from Idaho to Colorado. I wasn't looking for anything specific, but I found a few cool notecards and neat stickers. The staff was friendly and reasonably attentive. If I had been in the market for new outdoor gear, this shop seemed to stock a good collection of apparel, footwear, and hardgood brands.
Parking in front of the store is very limited, and I'm not sure if there's more around back, or if street parking is the only alternative. If there hadn't been an available spot out front, I probably would not have stopped, tbh.

I could spend all day here. Not only is there a ton of wonderful, high quality gear, they also have funky local items and the folks at the counter were so willing to offer advice on where to go and what to do. Do not miss stopping in if you're swinging through town.

Mandatory masking policy, even before being required to. Bravo! Way to put evidence over spin, thank you for protecting your employees and the public!

Always great gear and clothing, friendly knowledgeable staff.

Very knowledgeable staff. They were able to offer in depth info on planning backpacking trips. They have all the maps necessary and were able to point me right to their places deep in the mountains. They have really well done climbing guidebooks and were able to tell me how to get to the crags. Their gear selection was astounding! Everyting from compasses to sleeping pads, to belay devices. Their clothing selection is on point, too! Patagonia, Prana, Mountain Hardware, Royal Robins, Smartwool and much more!

This felt more like an REI than other outdoor shops in the area which seem to cater more to the hunter/fishing clientele.

Wild Iris is the local "high end" climbing - hiking - camping store, the kind where you can buy super cute, super expensive, highly functional stuff. It's the quintessential polar opposite of the Walmart camping department. There's a good selection and the folks are friendly and helpful. There's a small consignment (used gear) section.

Stopped in while thru hiking the CDT. Excellent selection of hiking gear and food. Plenty of other gear for other outdoor activities like climbing, etc. Friendly customer service while shopping.
