Greetings,
Planning a 10ish day road trip from Vancouver to Jasper at the end of August/early September and wanted to check in with anyone that might have done this route in an AWD 3.
Current plan is to overnight in Kamloops, then leave to Valemount the next day. I'm also considering a Level 2 top-up at 1 of the 3 rest stops on BC Hwy 5, likely Wire Cache for an hour just to stretch and add some 30-40km in the back pocket. Not sure if you can hike around there or if there is anything else interesting?
At the moment we're considering staying at the Best Western in Valemount to visit Jasper (budgetary restrictions), they have 1 Suncountry station which you can't reserve which we plan to use if available. Looking at plugshare the Valemount-Jasper corridor does not offer much charging opportunities outside hotels and the Library at Jasper, all of which are L2 and we're concerned that if we don't get timely charging we might waste the little vacation time we have.
I'm open to suggestions or having my assumptions corrected if necessary.
Many thanks.
