White Mountain Trading Post — Local services in Orderville

This place has so much that you wouldn't expect pulling up at a shell gas station till you get inside..... it's amazing. It does get busy with tour buses heading from park to park and the staff handles the influxes pretty amazingly. The owners actually work shifts there and are great people. They try to accommodate your needs by having almost everything you can think of on the shelves from some rv necessitates to some groceries some candy and chips to stationary needs and alot of gift shop items. Post cards on up to tshirts and native American jewelry are easily found and if your not sure ask the staff they can help with out a blink of an eye. Definitely a must stop and fill up or top off place and get your park necessities before you go in as once your in the park you can't buy any plastic water or soda bottles prefilled. They also have a subway restaurant to get sandwiches before you go...

They were friendly, honest and interesting to talk with - I plan to go back again when we're ever...

My visit to the trading post stands out in my memory because I had a conversation with some of the younger teenagers working at the store. It was funny to hear them talk about how the next town had a red light installed but this one only has a stop sign. The conversation all started when I asked what they did for fun, since this town is pretty remote.

Everyone at the store was friendly and prices were fair for being one of the few places to buy items outside the park (about 12 miles...
