Those round 1 and 2 itinerary you posted here was outstanding !!!!!!!
The three consecutive years I visited the Canadian Rockies, I would visit different areas that I previously had not visited (with the exception to Lake Louise campground)....
However the remote areas you posted were unbelievable that the majority of visitors including me had never seen....or knew that existed.
If my dog were still alive, she would refuse to answer to anyone why she was not be on a leash in a remote area with no people around, which is the exact same way she rolls as your dog does in the remote areas from all the pictures that were posted....as my dog was always leashed in populated or patrolled areas where rules were clearly posted that permitted pets.
Since 2010, my Canadian Rocky mountain lion (my all Alaska cat) has had to take over RV co pilot duties ever since and she does not like to hike in remote areas, especially for her safety.
Thanks for your kind words. It is great to be out enjoying the freedom of the outdoors. But everyones outdoor experience is relative and any of the areas that were in these 2 trip reports are in my opinion not remote. They are mostly in National and Provincial Parks which are heavily travelled and close to main highways. But to hike up the the top of let say Mt. Cascade takes some horse power and most older people are not into that sort of hiking, but it is not a remote place not like up in Alaska, northern BC or the Yukon.
Keep exploring with that mountain lion of yours.
