Another Merch Monday coming your way...with another new children's shirt design in stock!

The locals have one simple request... please don't feed them!

Our brand-new youth "Don't Feed the Locals" t-shirt has arrived to the inn, featuring everyone's favorite masked visitors gathered around a campfire. (Cute on a shirt... not so cute when they're raiding your s'mores at the firepit! ) 🦝

Feeding wildlife may seem harmless, but it can change natural behaviors and create unsafe situations for both animals and people.

Stop by the inn to pick one up for the little explorer in your family before they're gone!

It's Merch Monday...

One of our new youth tee designs has arrived, and we think it's bear-y adorable! 🐻

Our bear wanted to help show these new shirts off, along with a reminder "Don't Pet the Locals!" This shirt is the perfect souvenir for the little adventurers in your family. While wildlife may be fun to spot, they're always best admired from a safe distance!

Available now in youth sizes at our gift shop...grab one during your next stay or park visit!
