Vancouver to Banff back to San Diego

Vancouver to Hope there is really only one road, the Trans Canada Hwy. From Hope to Merritt is a good route but then I would head East to Kelowna and head up the Okanogan Valley to Revelstoke. Kelowna or Vernon would be nice to toodle around in and stay a bit. From Vancouver to Kelowna or Kamloops if you go the other route are divided. Rest of trip to Banff is two lane only. West of Banff at Yoho park you may want to spend some time too... Emerald Lake is gorgeous and their is NP campgrounds in Field to explore Yoho NP... Lake Louise is a hop skip and a jump from here, but be sure to stop at the spiral tunnels (Canadian Pacific Rail) ... if you didnt do this while staying in Field. Banff park is great to explore. Full service campgrounds in town and some beautify no service ones up road to Lake Minnewanka. A short drive east of Banff is Canmore.. and access to the Smith Dorian road (gorgeous but would not recommend trailer..) that loops around to Peter Lougheed Park then back to Trans Canada hwy via Hwy 40. If you have the time for hwy 93 to Jasper it is spectacular with numerous campgrounds (most with no services but Pit toilets). Check out the Travel Alberta website for pics and more ideas... Best route to Glacier is via Waterton park... exit 161A to Hwy 2 through the Whaleback...just gorgeous but no services from Longview to Lundbreck... hope this gives you some ideas and help..
