Walk through the general store and you will be surprised to find this wonderful little curio shop.
The shop looks a little but dusty but it is interesting to have a look around. There are stuffed antelope heads adorning the walls and on the table in the middle of the room, what was a lion! Here you can buy a variety of gifts or souvenirs, post cards and there is a really good selection of books.
If this is your first chance to shop then I would recommend that if you see a book that interests you then buy it here!
What to buy: Definately books and maps. If you see a little souvenir you want then why not.
If you are camping then stock up with provisions and definately fuel if yiou are going into the dessert.
What to pay: The items are priced but it's not expensive anyway.
