Dickerson, 29, a University of Pennsylvania instructor, and William Oeser, 29, a Baltimore schoolteacher, the Wilderness Campers (at $270 a head) drove out West in a Ford station wagon and a made-over secondhand hearse, stopped in Montana's Glacier Park, then moved on to Banff, 85 miles west of Calgary, for high adventure in the Canadian Rockies...
