How about Banff, and Jasper? Maybe a trans Canada park tour.
I'd recommend Peter Lougheed Albertan Provincial Park, but it is already booked for the water/power sites. They have a 90 day window on the campsites and each day they open at midnight on their website. I got up on the morning of the day the sites open 90 days out and got the VERY LAST water power site available in Boulton Creek campground.
Don't even try the sites down in the Bow Valley. But then again, you don't need to. Imagine Glacier NP. Pretty much and no one knows it, but Glacier is the southern end of the same geography all the way up to the Banff Jasper area. And Peter Lougheed is like the hidden gem of the whole thing. They did some development about forty years ago (one area) and then voted to not allow anymore development. It is wonderful and the Albertans know how to do a park right.
