Hi there. I'm looking to do a 3 or 4 day (2 or 3 nights) canoe camping trip somewhere in the mountains this summer, preferably in the Alberta rockies, since I live in Edmonton. I'm looking for a lake in the mountains with beautiful scenery and places to camp along the lake shore. Can anyone suggest any good lakes to do this? Thanks very much.
Answer
there is a canoe only accessible wilderness campground shores of Maligne lake. Ask the info center in Jasper.
one of the campsite is Coronet creek at the end of the lake, the other is Fisherman . They only have 7 sites each and you do need reservations.

Private Camp Grounds in BC?
Dylan
me and 5 other friends are considering going camping in British Collumbia (or jasper Alberta) and are wondering if it is possible to get a more private campgrounds. we were thinking of literally camping in the woods instead of an rv park or anything. it would be amazing if it was by a beach but perfect of it were by the ocean (if we pick BC) we are going for a week and are all 18 so we arent packing loads of cash (but we will each have about $200 to spend on campground) if possible list all sites you can. please and thank you :)

Start here http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/bcparks/explore/map.html These are inexpensive Government parks.
Most land belongs to someone. If you are well behaved and polite you can ask if you find a nice place you may get a spot for free from the land owner. RESPECT their generosity so others can enjoy in the future.

Budget$50-$100 per day for food gas and so on.It is not necessary to CARRY CASH you can use your bank card check on what the fee is to use it in Canada.
