I went thru at 0445 last month and was already bumper to bumper start stop. No fun with a 5er.

I totally agree, I-5 in that area SUCKS regardless of what time it is. Unfortunately some of my grandkids live in that area or we would NEVER go there again.

What is the best road with my 5er from Calgary through Banff to Vancouver? And maybe a camp site on the way...

From Banff, I head west on Hwy 1 to Kamloops, then take Hwy 5 to Hope, then back on Hwy 1 into Vancouver. Max grade is only 8%.

Between Vancouver & Banff, we normally stop at Viewpoint RV Park & Cottages, which is just outside Salmon Arm and is 1/2 way.

Entrance is a bit tight and it takes a little backing and forward to get big rigs into the site. I always request site # 1 or 2, preferably # 1.

Great owners and spotlessly clean. Entrance is right off the motorway.
