Three Rivers Outdoor Store Opens in Caveman Plaza

April 2017

Three Rivers Outdoor StoreSpringtime is here, and it’s time to dust off all that old camping equipment and get your outdoor clothing organized. Helping you out with that assignment will be Skeeter Trujillo and Jennifer Wilkinson at Three Rivers Outdoor Store, which opened just five months ago at 208 SW G Street in the Caveman Plaza.

“We have lived in the Rogue Valley for a little over a year,” Jen said. “We moved here from Moab, Utah, to be closer to family and to take advantage of all the great outdoor opportunities in the Rogue Valley.”

Skeeter had been part of the outdoor industry in Moab for five years, while Jennifer operated a Montessori School there.

“We noticed that Grants Pass was lacking an outdoor store and decided to open one ourselves,” Skeeter said. “We felt the community deserved the choice of quality gear. Between the two of us, we have a lot of experience in many outdoor activities. We love to have people just stop by and chat.”

Three Rivers is an outdoor retail store focusing on camping, hiking, rafting, backpacking … and anything to do with the outdoors. It’s a relaxed atmosphere where you can talk about your latest adventure.

“We can also get you what you need for that adventure,” Skeeter said. “We are the only outdoor industry related shop in Grants Pass.”

The store stocks everything from outdoor clothing and rain gear to rock climbing gear, tents, sleeping bags, backpacks, fly fishing gear, camping accessories, gloves, books, and lots more. They are also currently accepting gently used outdoor gear for consignment.

Starting March 26, the shop will be open on Sunday afternoons to anyone wanting to tie flies and share ideas. The free event is open to all and is a community get-together, not a class. “Bring your own vice, materials, ideas and skills,” Skeeter said. “It’s going to be a lot of fun.”

Skeeter and Jen are looking forward to working with the outdoor community. “We are family owned and operated and will do everything in our power to get the folks of the Rogue Valley the gear or information they need to get out and enjoy the outdoors,” she said.
