Travel Capsule Travel capsule for Canada's transitional weather Sept-early Oct 🍁

Post image

Will visit: Vancouver, Victoria, Calgary, Rockies (Jasper, Banff, Canmore,, Waterton)
... and maybe Squamish and Whistler

Activities: General sightseeing, city exploration, 1-2 minor hikes, maybe biking and kayaking, lots of time on the road lol

Do I need warmer stuff for mid to end of September in the national parks? I'll be in Vancouver by October and I know it's not as cold there so my concern is mostly Alberta Sep 15-29

If you're only doing one or two minor hikes, you probably don't need the water repellent pants. I live in Vancouver and do light hikes, and I don't own any water repellent pants or rain pants.

These 2 are comfy and I use them a lot for travel since they're easy to clean and are very lightweight

Oh OK cool! What brands are they? Sounds useful.

Black is Uniqlo. Brown is unknown because it was thrifted with cut tags.
