Works for me.
I have a route already mapped out in Streets and trips that would head through the Rockies, with an overnight at a hotspring that has everything from camping to luxury hotel.
I'll bring a copy of the route map to the pub night.

One day there and back. If it happened to be two nights, we could hit some of the best roads in B.C. I've done this trip about 15 times..... |

Did you see the cabin option? Halcyon hotsprings that Owen was refering to has a hotel as well, or we could stay in town and drink at Wileys pub........ :drunk: |

Sorry Matt, I have to agree with Chels on this one. Sleeping in a tent is fun, not to mention a far sight cheaper than a cabin.
Mind you, if you are bringing a S.O. along, the cabin does have superior soundproofing over the tent :wink: 8)

| Ok if we couldnt go on the 30/31 weekend when we would be go.I forgot I have a wedding on the 31st in Blighty.So it is gonna be kinda of difficult to come back.But thinking about it might be better to not do a long weekend as hotels would be busy and roads wont be packed with RV's.I am quiet happy to take Monday or Friday off if need be. |
