Eldora Mountain Ski & Snowboard Club and Singletrack Mountain Bike Adventures — two nonprofit outdoor clubs serving young Front Range athletes — host a massive outdoor gear and sample sale on Friday & Saturday, October 9 & 10, 2026 at The Avalon in Boulder. Sale hours are Friday from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
In-the-know locals line up before the doors open on Friday night to get first dibs on killer deals (up to 70% off) on skis, boots, helmets, goggles, outerwear, down jackets, sweaters, base layers, socks, hiking shoes, trail-worthy coolers, and much more.
Admission is $10 per person or $20 per family or group (4 max).
For this year’s event, the lineup of brands selling gear at deep discounts includes: Active Brands: (Kari Traa / Dæhlie / Sweet Protection), Amundsen, Angles Ski & Snowboard, Born Outdoors, ButtnSki, Cuore, D-Curve, Flylow, Fuxi, Green Guru, HEAD – Hard/Soft Goods, Himali, Krimson Klover, La Sportiva, Oberalp Group (Dynafit / Salewa / Pomoca), Ortovox, RovR, Stio, Strafe, Top Dog Sports, and Zeal Optics.
Shops like Alpine Base & Edge, Outdoor Divas, Eldora Mountain’s base area ski shop, and Satellite Boardshop will be on hand to liquidate last year’s stock and closeouts.
It’s the perfect opportunity to gear up for the season.
The Annual Sample Sale is the single largest fundraiser of the year for both nonprofits.
Last year, roughly $60,000 in scholarships was distributed to families in need, ensuring young people who want to participate in these mountain sports have the opportunity.
