Salmon Arm looks like the obvious answer when the question is which city sits higher: it or Calgary. Test that mountain-versus-prairie instinct alongside Ryan, whose first visit becomes an impromptu local quiz.

Low clouds and friendly people have already made an impression. Knowing the festival, the summer pastime, and the waterfront landmark is another matter. A Halloween houseboat offers one clue, but the buzzer gets plenty of work before the questions are finished.

And what makes a place memorable once its doors close? Kensington Hardware earns its place through a trusted answer to “I have no idea what I'm doing.” Department store memories bring basement cafés, rickety escalators, and Christmas displays into the running, with one particular store still holding the top spot.
