It is Saturday morning. You know what that means. Spot will go live in an hour or so.

Beautiful sunny morning. First stop, Yukon Camp for gas then the Arctic Circle sign. Then, onward north.

most of those roads are only complete though in the winter... like the one to Dead Horse

But the one that goes to the bay is open all year round

Yup, they have 2! But I believe they both only sell diesle and 87. And they are fairly expensive, between 6 & 8 per gallon last I checked
