When is generally a good time to start?
When is a good time to start into Alberta through Banff, Jasper to Alaska next year? I want to miss the snow.

We crossed the border at Sweetgrass May 1 this past spring. Strong head winds made us stop for the night at Fort Macleod. Next morning headed for Banff,beautiful weather that day and the next two. We then headed up to Jasper sun shining till we got to the Icefield Parkway then fog, rain and snow all the way to Jasper.
The park we planned to stay at was not open but we found another in Hinton AB. More snow that night a inch or so on the rig but 3-4 north, so we stayed another night. North to Grand Prairie the next morning with light rain on and off.
From there to Alaska it was sunshine all the way.
The one thing we found out going early is that many campgrounds, visitor centers and attractions are not yet open for tourists.
