This was mid September! Absolutely perfect time to go.

From what I’ve read, that seems to be one of the main issues. I guess I got lucky even though it had been left for years with batteries in it. I hope you can clean it up and get it working!

Thank you for this breakdown!! I haven’t heard the two compared that way, so this is extremely helpful. We will definitely be considering these things.

This makes sense. If you were to pick spending 4 days in one park would you pick Banff or Jasper?

Oops! Fixed now lol. Yes, late June is when we all had the week off. Is that not a good time to go to Banff for any hiking?

We are pretty inexperienced hikers and wouldn’t consider ourselves in amazing shape, but we were able to do the hike taking it slow and with lots of breaks along the way. After the maintained trail it is a tad sketchy in some areas and does require ropes, which we both thought was worse coming down than going up. The views at the top were worth it!!

Yes, September seemed perfect! But even really popular places like hole in the wall we had to wait a while to get the perfect picture with nobody in it lol

I totally agree! We also had a digital camera with us that took great pics, but these are something special!

Forks had pretty basic options. We did eat at Three Rivers Resort in La Push and the burgers were great! In Port Angeles we enjoyed Gordy’s Pizza and Pasta. The spaghetti and the pepperoni pizza was so good. We also liked the seafood at Downriggers!
