There is certainly a lot to see in BC as well for sure although I haven't been to Alberta. Hope she was able to get out and about to see some of BC's more beautiful natural scenery the world has to offer. Love every time we go up there, including the island.
Your itineraries/travel destinations match well with at least potential memorable fishing trips to be part of the mix. And visiting the kids as a destination goal/part of the plan makes it that much more worthwhile Enjoy it and good fishing to you out there.
I'm working long hours now so can have some extra free time in the late summer/fall to chase after fish. Looking forward to my daughter getting in on the pinks this year. She's 8.
