Fall is one of our favorite seasons here at Chopwood Mercantile. We named one of our rescue mustangs Equinox, after all! To celebrate the changing of the seasons and the fact that we made it through one of the busiest summers in recent history here in the Gunnison Valley, we’ve rounded up our best gear to see you through to winter whether you’re camping or getting cozy on the couch instead.
Take one look at the name of our shop and you’ll know we’re passionate about firewood. We stock a variety of time-tested Hults Bruk axes and hatchets both online and in the shop. In the wise words of Henry Ford, “chop your own wood and it will warm you twice.” We are also giving away a Hults Bruk Torneo Axe this week on our Instagram page. Head there for details on how to enter!

Nothing says fall like a cast iron skillet! Cook up some loaded enchiladas or peach cobbler over the campfire, or get even more gourmet at home. No matter what you whip up, these skillets will last a lifetime and will only get better with age. We exclusively cook with Field Company skillets and love that they are lighter weight and smoother then traditional cast iron. Plus, Field Company offers a wealth of proper care techniques on their website for first-time users.
