Hi Everyone, My husband and I are going to venture out next summer on our first long trip to celebrate retirement. Our tentative plan is to leave SF Bay area round mid-June and travel for 2 months. We plan on going north to Glacier Nat'l Park, up to Lake Louise, go west to Vancouver, then go south through Washington, Oregon and back to the bay area. My first thought was to make reservations at RV parks near Glacier and Lake Louise, because we know we want to spend 7-10 days at each place. We were just going to "wing it" the rest of the way. I will make a list of RV parks, and maybe call a few days ahead when we think we will be in that area. I'm having second thoughts because of summer travel. In CA, many of the campgrounds can be reserved months in advance, and it's difficult to find a place at the last minute. Is this true everywhere? Are there enough campgrounds out there to figure we will find a place? We wanted to be able to just be spontaneous since we are going places we've never been, and we aren't sure how long we will want to stay in one place. Should we make reservations and hold off the spontaneous idea for off season? Any tips, thoughts, recommendations from those of you that have done this for awhile would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
