We are arriving at Lake Louise Trailer Campground tomorrow and have concerns about cell phone coverage (US Verizon) in the Campground.
We need internet and phone to work, so it is very important that we at least have cell coverage so we can connect with our phones Hot Spot.
Can anyone give us information on this?
Thanks!

As an FYI, Lake Louise is in Alberta, not British Columbia.

Oops, sorry about that! We were in Kamloops and are driving towards Lake Louise. We are currently in Salmon Arm.

We were at that very campground several weeks ago and also have Verizon. Our cell coverage was good and I used my phone hot spot without issues. You will not, however, be on the Verizon network in that part of Canada. Your data will be limited to 5gig per calendar day. If you reach that limit, you will be notified and given the option of extending that limit for I think, $5 a day.

Thank you so much! That is exactly the information we needed.
