I’m sorry about bouncing around but I couldn’t remember your parameters from last night so here is a very small list of what I feel are must see. This does not cover a large area, it takes a whole day to list all the must sees that we have found. If you want some in a particular area PM me and I’ll try to accommodate. I can list places to drive like the Saint Laurence Seaway, BRP, Skyline Drive. Individual campgrounds would take forever.
Buy maps, books, travel guides and read, read, read.
Of course I would include almost all National Parks but there are a million books on those. The ones I did mention and absolute must see places and I skipped most of them. I didn't list much back East but it doesn't mean we aren't on our way back to see so much more than our first ten week trip back there.
Disclaimer: We are not destination travelers, we are see all you can and make a must return list for the spectacular locations. As my tag line says, "The Great Affair is To Go".
