In Short – This sporting goods store carries both new and used equipment for every imaginable outdoor activity. In particular, there's a huge selection of backpacks and tents, as well as everything for skiers and snowboarders. Because it concentrates on buying closeouts, the store undersells most of its competitors. Shoppers willing to purchase slightly older merchandise can probably find a deal.

Went there today to look for a sleeping bag and tent. The staff was super friendly and extremely helpful. Attentive to our needs and price range. Thanks Next Adventure, Team Madison Girls!!!
- Pros: Great advice.

Be ready to Haggle if you are trading in gear
by LKK2008
Recently went in to trade a pair of brand-new condition Garmont boots. Was really surprised when offered only $15 store credit but agreed because I trusted them and figured that's they would sell them for less than I had thought they could, maybe 3 times that -$45 or $50. I'd always had decent experiences at Next Adventure and I guess I fell for their good-guy ad campaign and didn't think they would just rip me off. But, after agreeing, unfortunately, checked out the used boots and saw a horribly dirty and poor condition identical version of mine going for $65! I'm sure mine will sell for at least $90 since they were in perfect shape. The buyer didn't explain the process at all and how he came up with the offer (unusual for trade-in place, in my experience). I don't know if the guy just wanted to buy them for himself or what his deal was, but I will never be back. It's really a pity because I had always liked having a more local down to earth place than REI but I guess that image just doesn't hold up in reality. Just be careful if you are trading in your beloved gear and expect NA staff to be trustworthy.
- Pros: Local
- Cons: Rip off

unorganized chaos.
by wallflower08
After hearing several recommendations about the snowboard gear at Next Adventure, I decided to make a trip there to check it out. To begin, not a single employee offered to help me find my way through the unorganized madness. Secondly, the snowboard selection was not impressive and was displayed in a chaotic pile leaving me very little desire to search through the equipment. Most of it looked like junk anyways, so I didn't waste my time. Don't waste your time here either.
- Cons: customer service. unorganized.
