ABOUT THE STORE

Think of a Klondike Gold Rush-era general store with a 21st Century twist – prospectors didn’t have much use for wireless earbuds or phone chargers, after all. 

We’ve got a wide variety of snacks, over-the-counter medications, souvenirs, and a whole lot more.  

Located an easy walk from the cruise ship terminal in the heart of Skagway, Grizzly’s General is here for you.

FAMILY OWNED AND OPERATED FOR 40+ YEARS.

It started with a dream...

Owners Duff and Karla Ray moved to Skagway, Alaska in 1979 as a young married couple with a dream to make it on their own in untamed Alaska. They tell the story of arriving by boat "with $10 to their name and a half a loaf of bread". Over the next 40+ years, Duff and Karla worked hard to build a collection of stores that serve Skagway visitors and locals alike.

Duff and Karla's 2 daughters and son-in-law help run the stores now. Their grandchildren are already helping in the backroom folding shirts and sweeping.  It truly is a family affair.
