Charging between Seattle, WA & Banff, AB

[kyunam]

I'm planning a round trip between two cities in the last week of July and am curious what the charging experience would look like.

Any info / tip are appreciated!

Check out plugshare. Lots of Electrify Canada and others. You'll probably want to stay at a place you can charge overnight. Banff was basically base camp for us with daily excursions/hikes/mtb
We stayed here Elk + Avenue Hotel Official Page: A Few Steps from Downtown Banff (banffjaspercollection.com)
Didn't have our T yet but noticed they have a 14-50 extension cord on back side of hotel. This parking area is mainly for oversize vehicles that can't fit in their underground garage. Place is dog friendly too. Highly recommend The Maple Leaf restaurant

You may want to consider traveling through Spokane for some DC fast charging. Was just jump there and it’s an EV wasteland.

Avoid PetroCanada.

I think that they are linked with PlugShare.
They have many stations across BC from 50 to 150 kWh chargers, located in small towns.
