Canada

We have some time off at the end of September and are considering renting an RV and driving around Newfoundland. I did a quick check and many sites seem to close around mid-September. Is the end of September a good time to visit or should we wait until next year? We've never been to Newfoundland so we want to make the most of this first visit!

Me and my friends are planning a four day road trip to New Brunswick from Montreal.

This will be our first visit to the province. We were wondering what city(ies) should we visit. (We are not planning to party late night, outdoor activities will be our preference).

Given that we are all students, budget is also our consideration ($500 per person)

Also, is it better to drive from Montreal or shall we take train/bus?

Thanks!

We are planning an extended hiking trek in the Rockies near Banff NP. The three of us are quite experienced hikers and have all done plenty of hikes (ranging from 1-3 weeks at a time) in Northern Europe and South America.

For our hike in the Rockies we are wondering:

- Is hiking off the marked trails in national parks legal? (a source for this would be awesome!)

- Does anyone have either personal experience or knows of a good source of information (e.g. concerning routes/trailheads/etc.)?

Most information we were able to find concerns day-hikes or small 2-3 day hikes in the immediate vicinity of official camping places etc. This is not what we are looking for...

Friends of mine and me are planning an extended hiking trip in the Rockies near Banff NP. We will be traveling by bus, and therefore need to plan our hiking route with the reachable trail heads/endpoints in mind.

Does anyone know of a map(!) which shows all the Greyhound bus stations and stops? So far we have only found a list of all stations (the names), which is of no use to us at all as we have no idea where these stations actually are...

Im traveling to vancouver from 8 june to 17 june, i was wondering whether the weather would permit me to wear shorts? And what do people there usually wear at this time of the year? Wouldn't want to stick out like a sore thumb.

I'm thinking of driving up to Montreal for a few days with my 17 year old son. I'm looking for suggestions on where to stay and what to see. My budget is very tight, so I need to make this as cheap as possible.

What would you recommend in hotels as close as possible to an address of 42 Lakeview Avenue, Toronto?

Are there tours from Fairmont Hot Springs, BC to Jasper, Baniff, Calgary, ect?

We're thinking of taking a trip to Montreal during the first week of September. We'll be flying in and won't have a car. Unfortunately, our ability to navigate steps, hills, and long walks will be somewhat limited. Do you have any suggestions about where to stay (up to $225 per night), as well as what attractions to see, including organized city and water tours?
