Many/most northern stations do sell diesel along with unleaded regular. I would say a much higher per cent of Canadian stations sell both diesel and propane than does the average US station. Seem to see many more Canadians using propane as a vehicle fuel. I have driven a diesel pickup on our last 4 round trips to Alaska and never had a problem finding fuel. As mentioned, drive on the top half of your fuel supply. I have seen northern stations temporarily run out of either diesel or gasoline and are waiting for their next delivery. Some of the seasonal stations close when they sell the last of the fuel in their tanks, so one fuel may run out before the other. Most leave their storage tanks empty while they close for the winter, if they are only open for the summer.
