    Default Outfitters near Front Royal, Va.

    I just discovered that Weasel Creek Outfitters has closed. Does anyone know a place in or near Front Royal where I can get stove fuel, etc.?

    Oops. I should have added, it depends on what fuel you are looking for. Alcohol you can find anywhere.

    Nearest outfitters is either Harper's Ferry or Winchester. Not sure if the Applehouse in Linden was carrying stove fuel or not. phone : (540).636.6329
    Getting lost is a way to find yourself.

    Thanks. I'm probably looking for canister fuel but could use denatured alcohol, depending on which stove I bring.
    BTW, where is Winchester?

    In April 2010 neither Wal Mart or K Mart carried canister fuel. That may have changed. I could not find any in Ft. Royal.

    Good luck

    The Apple House in Linden has canisters for sale and I just put in a recommendation for them to sell Denatured alcohol. You also have Appalachian Outdoor Adventures in Luray, Va that have fuel and Aqua Mira. Ramsey Hardwear store on Royal Ave in Town might sell Denatured alcohol also.
