Just to revisit this - my work  travel schedule is now pushing me to move this to the second week in September.

Looking at climate data it drops about 10 degrees but only gets a little wetter.

Can anyone comment on this? Will pushing this a month make a huge difference? If so - where would you go instead - pretty much anywhere in the continental US is possible.

Thanks

Thanks for the replies - good to know.

Hi,

I'm tentatively planning a week doing the GDMBR from Banff to Whitefish in Mid August, and was wondering about the weather etc.

I get that most people start earlier if they're doing the whole thing, but is there any major disadvantage of doing the Canadian section at this time of year?

I'm thinking wildlife, weather and water.

I'm also open to riding with someone, aiming to make Whitefish from Banff in 7-8 days of riding starting on a Saturday

Thanks
