We’re not on a vacation here. Now is not the time to cross National Parks off of your bucket list. You want to explore the trails with your immediate family? Fine – but it’s not the time to be road trippin’ with hundreds of other people in the parks.
Parks Canada Closes all Motor Vehicle Access to National Parks
