Wilderness Equipment Rentals

What is your preference..... to spend on average $3,325 for 5 nights in a Banff/Canmore/Kananaskis hotel accommodation or spend $695 for 5 nights of campground reservations and 5 days of camping equipment rental to have an immersive, unforgettable experience like pictured here?

A gorgeous and healthy looking cinnamon black bear in Waterton Lakes National Park. Did you know we now have a kiosk at the Banff Train Station where you can rent bear spray, hiking poles and backpacks?

Female elk (cows) are about to or have recently given birth to their calves. They are extremely protective of these newborns. Indeed, there are more dangerous interactions between elk and humans than there are with bears. There are lots of babies being born right now in and around Canmore and Banff. Stay a good 10 bus lengths away. Carry bear spray even on popular trails and pathways. Pick up our rental bear spray from our Canmore and Banff locations. NOTE: this photo of a pregnant mama was taken with a large zoom lens and cropped.

Unforgettable!!!

Cascade Ponds is a perfect Banff destination if you have never tried out a SUP. Safe and small with stunning mountain views, it is also a fantastic picnic spot. Pick up your SUP rental from us at our shop in Canmore.
