We went up through Michigan this summer, crossed over at Mackinac and followed the QEW through western Ontario, Skatchewan, Alberta, Manitoba, etc. From Columbus, OH to Dawson Creek was about 2200 miles. Advice: Don't plan on so many hours of driving or so many miles a day as they will ruin your enjoyment of the trip. Allow plenty of down time to see the sights, observe the animals when you see them---which can be any where from a few minutes to a half hour or more (we did this a lot). We found CG's were not a problem in terms of getting a site for the night...a call the day before was all the advance notice for most and some we made just by driving up to the office and asking. The trip is scenery, animals, adventure, seeing things that are nor possible in the lower 48. We spent 70 days on our trip, didn't see everything and are planning to go back in a few years.
