Re: Takakkaw Falls - Yoho NP
As far as I know Takakkaw Falls flows in the fall. You should have no problem finding a campsite in Kicking Horse Campground in mid September. It would be central enough for day trips to Lake Louise and Banff but I would consider it too far away from Jasper for a day trip. The weather could vary widely but if a storm passes through dropping snow it likely would not stay on the ground for too long.365Views0likes0CommentsRe: Temporary TT Insurance For Visitor In Alberta
When we traded our old trailer for a new one at a dealer in Alberta we prearranged our insurance before we left home. We had all the information for the new trailer and then just traded the license plate at the dealer. I registered the new trailer and paid the provincial tax when I returned home to BC.285Views0likes0CommentsRe: Alberta Route Question for my Canadian Friends

Unless I hear from someone with experience on 540, I'll count on 533 for sure. I have used both 533 and 540 pulling our trailer. 540 has less elevation gain but both are good paved roads.850Views0likes0CommentsRe: Johnson's Canyon Campground Banff
We stayed there a few years ago with our 26ft trailer. Some sites will be long enough for your unit but the narrow roads may be a problem. The site we were in was on a shallow angle to the road but the trees don't allow for a lot of maneuvering space.377Views0likes0CommentsRe: Whitetail Lake, BC
I was into Whitetail Lake three years ago with our 26' trailer. There were a few more trailers about the same size but I would not have wanted to be any longer. We have also camped at Johnson Lake but we stayed on the flat area above the actual Rec Site. That area would be okay for you if there is no one already there.112Views0likes0CommentsRe: Travel Trailer trip across Canada
We last did that trip in 1999 with a 19ft TT. We did it in Sept and Oct so it was a lot less busy than in the summer. We found some nice little campgrounds in small towns that were good for an overnight stop and didn't cost as much as some of the Provincial Parks or large RV Parks. We just travelled a day at a time and stopped when we felt we like it. I don't like to make reservations and be tied to a schedule, it works for us. We enjoyed some of the Provincial Parks also but by mid to late Sept some of the parks were already closed. I've driven across the country four times so far and am looking forward to another trip in the next year or two. There is still lots to see.241Views0likes0Comments
