There is not too many choice on fuel on your way up, unless you have a very big tank, you have to plan to fuel up at bigger village / town, in between could be very expensive.
Fuel is cheaper in Alberta, Fuel is expensive in BC, so fill up to the top at Grande Prairie, then fill up at Dawson Creek BC to make it to Fort Nelson, do not fill up between Dawson creek and Fort Nelson, very expensive in between.
280 miles, Fill up at Fort Nelson.
315 miles, Fill up at Watson Lake,
Fuel is very expensive at Muncho Lake BC, Liard hotspring should have fuel at Liard Hotspring Lodge, maybe a little cheaper if you cannot make it to Watson Lake
Then Teslin, fuel about same price as Watson Lake.
Whitehorse, fill up, then fill at Haines junction to make it to TOK, 290 miles, There should be fuel in Beaver Creek if you cannot make it to TOK.
Then, in AK, fill up in bigger towns. Fairbanks, Anchorage, Homer, Wasilla, Russian River, Kenai, Soldotna.
If you go up or down through Casiar Highway, fill up at Prince George, fill up in between, then Dease Lake and Upper Liard.
If you go up to Dawson YT, fuel up in Dawson, not at the Dempster Junction. Also fuel at Stewart Crossing.
If you go the Dalton Highway, there is not much choice, fill up at Fairbanks, then at Yukon river crossing, at Coldfoot, then Deadhorse.
HAVE A WONDERFULL TIME, fill up and do not look at the bill, just enjoy!
