The drive from Hope, BC to Gregg Lake was gorgeous.  We took the Coquihalla Highway (Yellowhead 5) that went right through Jasper. Stayed there for dinner before arriving at the William A. Switzer Provincial Park. 

We got there just in time. The office was just about to close. We got to our site and set up. The sites were quite a bit closer and more open than in BC but the worst part was that when the girls went to check out the bathroom, we found that there was no running water. Meaning outhouses and a bottle of Purel at the door.  Eeeeeeuuuuuwwww!  The showers on the other group of sites were also not working because the park was having trouble with their water system. Needless to say, we were unhappy women!  Went to bed after a bit of camp fire.
