A cheque book.
A chainsaw.
A number of years ago I took my 3 yr old son on what was to be a week long trip in our tent trailer down the FTR, staying at Provincial Recreation Areas along the way. We started south of Edson (an area that I frequent) where sites were $5/night but when we got to areas west of Rocky Mountain House, sites were $25/night. I blew through my stack of $5 bills in a big hurry and it put an early end to the trip.
Now I just scratch out a cheque without worrying about how much cash I have on hand.
The ability to get your own firewood is handy. Not all places supply it, sometimes it costs extra, sometimes it costs A LOT extra.
