The Colorado Outpost Retail Center is a striking 30,000 sq. ft. destination designed for outdoor enthusiasts year-round. This four-season retail space offers a wide selection of gear for campers, hikers, anglers, archers, and hunters, creating a true one-stop shop for adventure.

Inside, visitors will find a full-line sporting goods store featuring archery equipment, firearms, fishing gear, hiking and camping supplies, along with a selection of tourist and souvenir items. An impressive display of more than 100 big game mounts enhances the experience. The facility also includes an indoor archery range and an on-site restaurant, making it both a retail space and gathering destination.

The building’s exterior features ADP-2 panels in Patrician Bronze with Natural Evergreen trim, creating a warm, rustic appearance. A ZL-24® Regal White metal roof system provides durability and visual contrast. The canopy utilizes ZL-16® panels in Natural Evergreen for a cohesive finish.

With the priority on lightweight construction and accelerated timelines, the building owner partnered with Alcon Construction of South Alamosa, CO to erect this Behlen metal building system. Their approach delivered an efficient solution that met both performance and schedule goals.

The result is a dynamic retail environment that reflects the passion, heritage, and lifestyle of the outdoor community it serves.
