For convenience, you can't beat renting your gear at the ski area. No carrying 20 pounds of alpine gear from your car, no wet gear to worry about at the end of the day. But, first thing in the morning, Monarch's Gear Rental shop can get pretty crowded. Who wants to wait in line while the lifts are running? There are several great rental shops in Salida and Poncha Springs. We recommend stopping by Mt. Shavano Ski and Snowboard Rental Shop for convenient and quick in-and-out service. They have great prices, well tuned rental gear and friendly, knowledgeable staff. You can find the shop on the right as you head west out of Poncha Springs on Highway 50 toward Monarch pass and Monarch ski area. Continue for about 5 miles beyond Poncha Springs until you see their distinctive A-Frame shop. Monarch Ski and Snowboard Rental They have a wide variety of equipment for rent, including regular and high performance alpine skis, snowboards, telemark skis and cross country skis. They also have one of the nicest gear shops if you need to buy a helmet or gloves. Mt. Shavano Ski and Snowboard Shop - A Frame
