Lots of lakes, lots of sites: nice quiet lake sites for 53 feet, Hmmmm:h
Waterfowl Lakes is great but it appears to close Sept 7.
A bit off your suggested route but you might try Interlakes, in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park, Kananaskis Country. A beautiful area, very busy is summer. Probably not bad in Sept. A side benefit would be a short drive up the Highwood Pass where the Latch trees would probably be turning yellow.
For boondocking between Jasper and Lake Louise you could turn East on Highway 11 at the Saskatchewan River Crossing and boondock along Abraham Lake. It is a long lake formed by a dam on the east end and the only boondocking area I am familiar with is by the dam. That would be about 35 miles from the Icefield Parkway. A further 15 miles would take you to Fish (Shundra) Lake which is much smaller.
You would have to check on site size but I think some would be OK When we were there a couple of years ago there were Ospreys and Bald Eagles fishing.
I can recommend lots of Lakes and Campgrounds but you would need a bit of driving between.
