Question

I'm going backpacking across Canada (from NS to BC) September- October...what kind of clothes should I take

Answer 1

I am actually leaving today on the exact same trip. It's summer so my clothing will be very light, but as for you I would suggest you expect everything. Starting off in the maritimes weather during september should be fairly mild but as you move into the more central provinces especially towards Saskatchewan expect cold weather especially if you are traveling through Saskatoon  then Edmonton. I am from Vancouver myself and know for a fact that you can expect rain when you arrive although some of B.C. will still be experiencing summer type weather. In short come prepared for any condition. Good luck and happy trails.
