>be me
>go to banff with family last summer
>campsite is a bunch of fucking rocks and gravel, hard to get the tent stakes in, pretty close to others, very small, no foliage and in a crowded area
>fire ban in effect
>go to lake louise, parking lot full, barely manage to squeeze in and find a spot
>entire tourist area absolutely packed, mostly with shitskins, super crowded, reeks of shit, some dude smoking a spliff
>utterly miserable experience
>leave, go to a beach on lake minnewanka
>also crowded, almost no room to swim and youre fucking packed together on the tiniest beach ever, also the ground in the water is pretty shitty, very mud-like
>go back to campsite, sleep while you can hear everyone around your campsite talking and playing music because there's zero fucking trees or grasses between the campsites, and no stars because light pollution
>wake up the next morning, decide to go walking on some trails
>finally some relative peace and quiet, although the terrain is kind of shitty and there's fucking electric fences everywhere to keep the bears out i guess
>later go and drive to Banff (the town)
>absolutely packed place with fucking ludicrous prices, even at pizza pizza and timmies. also massive jeet and shitskin hordes.
>eventually just decide to just go driving around all of banff and the mountains around it for the rest of the day
>actually fucking nice, nobody around and you get to admire all the views from your car and take pit stops
>driving through banff is nicer than actually staying in it
>leave, never fucking go back there again
