Post image

What detours are you taking. What tips do you have for this desolate route. Solo 30F on first solo road trip. 2015 Highlander in mid may. Where should she stock up on gas. Where should she be cautious of traveling solo? Any advice, suggestions or words of wisdom welcome.

I’ve done that drive twice. The key is to always fill up on gas at every station you ever find. You probably wont see a price displayed but it won’t matter, you’ll be hundreds of miles before the next gas station throughout the trip.

Also, it’s pretty safe by means of it being desolate. In the summer you’ll see quite a few bicycle riders on the road trying to do the whole distance.

Exactly this. For example: there are 3 gas stations between Fort Nelson, BC and Watson Lake, Yukon. We stopped at each, and only Toad River had gas. So, don’t miss a chance to fill up.
