Lonely Planet review for Mountain Equipment Co-Op
Cavernous granddaddy of Vancouver outdoor stores, grown hikers have been known to weep here at the amazing selection of mostly own-brand clothing, kayaks, sleeping bags and clever camping gadgets: MEC has been turning campers into fully fledged outdoor enthusiasts for years. There’s a good selection of regional and international maps and guidebooks, plus a climbing wall to test your new gear. You’ll have to be a member to buy, but that’s easy to arrange and only costs $5. Equipment – canoes, kayaks, camping gear etc – can also be rented here.
