OA gear shops?

Hey guys. Does anyone know of any outdoor/bushwalking shops near Princeton?

I'm comming from Australia and i'm thinking of buying the sleeping bag, foam mattresses and the nuts and bolts when I get to Princeton. Due to space constraints, I'll have to bring my stuff i need for the year, dump them in my room and then pack my oa stuff in when I get there so I'm hoping to buy as much stuff as possible once I get there.

Is it possible to order stuff online and have it delivered and are there any bushwalking stores in Princeton?

Yup, there's a great one called EMS (Eastern Mountain Sports), which is in MarketFair Mall, which is one of the malls in a cluster of 5, about 5 minutes from Princeton on Route 1.

Cool. Are there any others?

I just looked them up and i'm thinking of ordering stuff and picking it up from the store or having it delivered to Pton. If I have it delivered- can I pick up from my college/frist on sign in day?

theres also an outdoor store of some kind (not sure of the name of the store, blue mountain sports, perhaps) at the princeton shopping center i think.

I wouldnt ship it there because you need it the next day after you arrive... that's cutting it too close for me because everythings kinda crazy on freshman move in.
