We just came back from a jaunt north. Many rigs are headed north. It would not be necessary to make reservations, however I would start looking for campsite early. Suggest by about 3 PM.

Gas is readily available. Run on the upper end when you get farther north. Some are 100 miles plus between stations.
If you do not have a Milepost Magazine suggest you get one. Even though it is full of ads it is quite complete for fuel stops.
