Canadian Rockies, Canada

Grocery Stores: Sav-on, IGA, Safeway (Canmore), Nester's Market (Jasper)

RV Supplies (in a pinch): Canadian Tire, Walmart (Calgary only)

REI???: We have MEC, it's in Calgary and it's great.

Starbucks: Skip, either try Tim Hortons or go local.

We use kilometres, not miles. 1.6km = 1mi

And metres, not feet: .3m = 1ft

Prices are shown in CAD, not USD. You can use a currency converter app if you are uncertain but if you have USD you'll appreciate the price that shows on your bank statement.
