How about Banff, and Jasper? Maybe a trans Canada park tour.

Thanks to those of you with the positive responses. For those of you who think I'm a year too late, or crazy to travel without reservations-- oh well. I suppose you think I'll have more fun in New Jersey in August? Ever seen the crowds at the Jersey Shore?
Toedtoes-- I'm with you! A bad day in a crowded park in August beats staying home any time of year! As long as we are in our RV, we are happy people.

Busskipper,
Thanks for the detailed itinerary! We too love Colorado, and were at Turquoise Lake just last June! We also were in Ouray in, I think, 2015 and drove the Million Dollar Highway. We also camped at a NFS campground (Big Cimarron Campground; no hookups)-- on August 31, we and our friends were literally the only people there, and it cooled down a LOT at night! You are right, it's a fantastic destination, and may just be our alternative plan. I am going to plug in some of your suggestions and see how it all works out.
Thanks so much for your thoughts.

I'm planning our trip for August this year (can't go in September as we have in the past.)
Can anyone share, have you been to big touristy places (specifically Yellowstone NP) in August, and if so, is it
1) brutally crowded and
2) very hot?
Also, what about northern California-- such as Shasta and Lassen?
We have more than a month and want to spend it out west, but
I'm hoping to avoid the heat a little bit, and I'm worried about the crowds--
we tend to travel without advance reservations.
we tend to travel without advance reservations.
Northern California is still on my "to visit" list;
we had a fabulous time in Yellowstone in September without any problems camping, but
I'm worried August is more of a problem.
Don't need hookups, so any advice would be appreciated.
And also any less well-known destinations!
Thanks--
Debbie
