Too bad - you'll lose out on all the incredible forest roads in British Columbia. You can tour along the Elk and Bull Rivers and have all the beauty of Banff/Jasper without the hordes of people. There are free, rustic campsites every 15 or 20 km - or you can random camp. Plus there are incredible BC Parks like Elk Lakes. Not the last time but the time before - I was the ONLY person in the park as far as I could tell. No rangers or vehicles at the entrance station. No vehicles at all at the trailhead. No one on the trails or at any campsite. Just me and the grizzlies.
