Very nice! I was just hiking south of there today up CMC Valley.

You hear any of the coverage of how random camping is trashing Bighorn? poo poo seems off the hook

Yeah I've heard. Was looking at heading to Abraham Lake but it sounds like it's just mounds of garbage all over the place this summer unfortunately.

The travel ban seems to have really brought out the worst of Alberta's trailer trash campers, groups pulled two huge dumpsters of garbage off the trails at the Ghost and McLean Creek on a couple consecutive weekends.

Content: we did some car camping along the Palliser in BC this weekend, it was absolutely epic. First time out with the RTT and it was a game changer for my wife particularly who has never gotten along with ground tents. 35C but the river was nice and cold so it was manageable.

Big time agree. This is my second year since getting a roof tent. Yours is very nice, I am considering getting a massive sized roof tent that could fit my whole crew. CVT has one that should fit everyone. The thing holding me back would be the ~$3500 cost for the behemouth.

Yeah we basically just looked at the price as "well we can't do any other travel for the next 12 months anyways". CVT is super popular around here, as is Treeline Outdoors. I sprang for the hardshell just for ease of use but your money certainly goes further with a softshell and some of them are super nice!
