Default Columbia icefields

We're planning a trip to the Columbia Icefields.

Most campsites have not hookups whatsoever in Jasper National Park (where the Columbia Icefields are). So far we're planning:

Revelstoke KOA
Restreak Campground near Radium Hotsprings
Overnight stay at Columbia Icefield Discovery Centre (no hookups!)

Return along same path.

I'd like to find one more stop between Vancouver and Revelstoke, perhaps very near Kamloops. There seem to be very few nice campgrounds near Kamloops, especially those that have hookups.

I'm not against dry camping, but I am still trying to sell the idea of trailering to my wife. Also, I don't want to find out how many days our toilet can go without emptying, or the freshwater supply, by trial and error with a family! I realize that many dry camping sites do have sanidumps, but it would be a real pain to pack up the trailer and tow it to a sanidump every couple of days. I know I could get a portable blackwater tote, but I'm not too fond of that idea just yet.
