I've done the route marked in pink. It's been 15+ years now but I recall it being lightly travelled and very scenic. Buy gas and snacks when the opportunity presents itself. We stayed overnight in Revelstoke.

But when you get to Banff you will be in Alberta, not British Columbia....don't piss off the locals!

this will be the farthest east we've been in Canada

we're going to start by heading over to Spokane, ID and then head north
