    Gasoline Availablility Glacier Park (US) to Banff, Canada

    Last summer, my wife had fries and gravy, I had a hamburger and fries, two glasses of water, they didn't put ice in the water. Almost 40 bucks. Won't ever stop there again.

    Outside fencing for multiple animals?

    Ours are 1/2" not a problem with strength and they are lighter to handle too. We have had our daughter's two standard poodles inside the fence. They have both had their legs up on the fence with no problems.

    Outside fencing for multiple animals?

    Yes, no need for stakes we just set them on the ground.  I found them by searching for pet fence on ebay. I think you can get them on Amazon as well. Two sets were less than $200. 00 delivered in Canada.

    Outside fencing for multiple animals?

    I'm a bit late to this discussion - I've been tied up with a project. We use fence panels bought from Ebay.  They come from 24" high to 48". and are 30"wide. They come in sets of eight panels, one of them has a gate. We have two sets of 30" high. They only take about ten minutes to setup...

    It's our first time! Be gentle......... ;)

    The Ice fields Parkway. I could spend at least a week going from Banff to Jasper. Lots to see and do. Lots of camping too.  Johnson's canyon, Ice fields center - take the bus onto the glacier, then up to the new skywalk. Athabaska falls and the trails around it. Miette hot springs, the cave and...

    Finding Propane filling stations

    Yup - paid that last year in Alberta. Costco in Prince George is $ 18.95 for a 30lb bottle last week. Don't know why the difference between the provinces.

    Fuel mileage

    We have a 3500 duramax. Our trailer is almost 12,000 lb. If I put my foot in it or travel over 65mph I get as low as 8 - 10mpg per Canadian gallon.  Best ever was on the prairies on the freeway all the way. Steady speed at 100 km per hour (62mph) about 300 miles. We got just over 15 mpg Canadian...

    Photo metadata (EXIF) How do I access?

    Hi Smoky:- I use Metadata all the time. I shoot canine confirmation shows and equine shows, mostly dressage and jumping. There is a lot of info available in there. I can check for consistency in exposures. What focal length and shutter speed I used, the camera mode, etc. Go to EXIF Reader Page...

    Hi All

    Hi Paul and Ann-Marie:- I have to agree. I've been to Stampede and the parade is the thing to see! AND anytime you can dress western is a good time. To John and Mary-Ann - thanks for the tip on Pine creek campground. We are planning a Rockies trip this summer. We may just have to swing over to...

    When do you pull over?

    Hi All:- here in British Columbia the speed limit is 100 KM/hour (62mph) We can easily get away with 110, so I do. Most of our hills have passing lanes.? Even when I travel for work with only the truck, no trailer, at the absolute max of 110 Km/H I still find myself leading a bunch of vehicles...

    Northern Lights Diesel Generator 6KW

    Hi Sylvie:- Northern lights is primarily a marine diesel unit. I don't know how they have added the rad but make sure that the unit you buy has a rad, because marine units use the lake or ocean water to cool the engine.? Gensets run at different RPMs depending on their design. Skid mounted...

    Me too - I'm new!

    Hi Everybody:- My wife and I just bought a used fifth wheel and put it into storage for the winter. It's been raining and right around freezing so not much chance to use the new toy this year. I will get the hitch installed in the spring so we can start using it. We live in Prince George...
