List of Gas and diesel stations open in winter:
Kitwanga 0km
Bell II 249km
Iskut 405km
Dease Lake 480km
Good Hope Lake 628km
Junction #37 and Alaska Hwy 727km
Remember that stations opperate at different hours(reduced) in the winter. Fuel up before heading to the next place. You might want to carry a 5 gallon container just in case. The only time there was a problem in the hundreds of times I have travelling #37 in the winter over the last 30 years was when there was a warm spell and there was rain or thaws that turned the roads into ice rinks.
If you ever have a problem, get out of your vehicle, hold your hand up and you will receive some sort of assistance from everyone who passes. In the past, that was the way of the north.
