A couple of years ago I bought some maps from a store right in downtown vancouver .I cannot for the life of me remember the name or even the street it was on.
They seemed to have every map and chart you could imagine.

Does anyone know the name of this place ? Thanks . Geo.338

By far the best place (since it is the creator and shipper to all those map stores) is http://www.maptown.com/

They very rarely take more than a few days to ship it all to you, and are cheaper than any store ive found.

Hope that helps.

Nixon's is now closed, unfortunately. IIRC the place down town was called Dominion.

Alternately you could order these disk's and print as you need.

I cant remember the name of the place but it is located a couple doors west of Cambie on Broadway. I bought a map there a month ago and they have a massive selection of any map you could possibly need.

I've bought maps from the Government Agent as well as the Ministry of Forests Office - they had them right there. I don't recall the price though, but they were quite affordable.

I go to World Wide Books and Maps on Broadway. I prefer to hold the map in my hand and make sure it is the right one and the right year before buying it. It is located with in a couple of blocks of all the outdoor stores on Broadway so I can check them out also if looking for gear.
