Camping Suggestions Near Banff, AB
Heading up into BC from Glacier... Looking for good suggestions for a decent camping area around Banff National Park. Does not have to be IN the park. Thanks in advance....

Were you the one asking about border crossings? Which side of Glacier are you on?
If you are on the east side (St Mary), then you can continue north, visit Waterton, and take AB 22 to Longview, west into Kananaskis Country, and on to Canmore.
But if you are on the west side, US93 continues on to BC93. BC3 takes you back over the divide, letting you take AB22 north. Or stay on 93 to Radium, and enter the parks through Kootenary. There are several BC parks along this route, as well as camping the Nat Park. 93 continue north through Banff to Jasper, with more camping and great sights.
When you enter the Canadian Nat Parks you get a newspaper outlining sights and lodging options for the whole set.
