OUR BEAR-CRAFTED STORM PREP ADVICE
OCT 10 - Oct 12th 2026
We don't know exactly how the weather will develop from Friday night through Saturday, but one thing is certain: Keeping our bears and visitors safe comes first!
Depending on conditions, we may need to adjust our weekend hours, so please keep an eye on our social media channels and this website for updates.
In the meantime, a little preparation never hurts! We recommend stocking up today on your favorite Applejay from Ellijay, plenty of snacks, and a good movie. Then head home, get cozy, and let the weather do its thing outside.
The bears agree: Better prepared than caught without snacks and Applejay from Ellijay!
Stay safe, stay cozy, and please drink responsibly. 21+.
