Shopping
Shopping at
Kicking Horse or Golden won't entertain you for hours, but there are a few shops with ski and snowboard gear and clothing, and fantastic souvenirs.
Grocery Shopping
The general store located in the Mountaineer Lodge in the Plaza sells basic groceries including fresh produce, toiletries, alcohol, magazines, and take-away pastries and coffee. They also have an ATM and internet access.
For substantial shopping needs, the prices are much better at the supermarkets down in Golden. One example is Sobey’s supermarket on the corner of the road to the resort.
Souvenir Shopping/General Shopping
The Kicking Horse Brand Store in the Day Lodge has a huge range of souvenirs with the KHMR branding emblazoned over it. They sell t-shirts, fleeces, jackets, ski accessories, caps, stickers, beanies, and many other items. They even have KHMR chopsticks, saucers, mugs, pins, beanies, key rings, drinking bottles, hip flasks, shot glasses, soft toys, Spankies (cleaning cloth trail maps), cooking sauces and soft toy horses. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a large array of ski resort souvenirs. Crazy!
Canyon Creek Outfitters and Selkirk Sports are other shops selling souvenirs, ski and snowboard equipment, and snow clothing. The range isn’t huge but more than adequate if you need to replace anything urgently.
In Golden the 180 Mountain Sports shop sells backcountry gear and limited ski and snowboard outerwear.
