美國的醫療費極昂貴。為求保障, 可考慮買旅遊保險, 以防萬一。(If you don't have extended health care paid by your employer)
You should be aware that your provincial coverage may not pay for all the health care costs you may incur outside the province, and the difference can be substantial. For example, B.C. pays $75 (Cdn) a day for emergency in-patient hospital care, while the average cost in the U.S. often exceeds $1000 (US) a day, and can be as high as $10,000 (US) a day in intensive care. For this reason, you are strongly advised to purchase additional health insurance from a private insurer before you leave the province, whether you are going to another part of Canada or outside the country - even if you plan to be away for only a day. See Medical Care Outside B.C. for more information.

Camony,
Just called the Ranger Station:
1. Parking permit is required for two days, 2x$5. Camping is free.
2. The Ranger Station at Darrinton (north) is NOT open for Sat. The one at Verlot is open at 8:30am Sat. Another chance is to buy at convenient store at the city of Granite Falls (no guaranteed).
Talked with my officemate about this trip.
1. From parking to the Monte Cristo is flat. The trail from there to the Glacier Basin is not easy. Above all, one portion is really "climbing". It means u might need to use your hands to climb up the rocks even it is very short. He does NOT recommend it with 40lb BP.
