Those are pretty good notes. I don't think there's any legal reason to need to avoid carrying ammunition for guns you don't have with you through Canada (subject to the 5000 round limit), assuming it's properly declared etc., though it may well make them more likely to search your vehicle at the border--as they have every right to do in any case. Many people do this on the way to Alaska if they have a handgun shipped separately there in care of a gun dealer.
The only additional comment I would make is that you're missing out on a lot of really beautiful countryside if you stop at the Arctic Circle on the Dalton Highway. I would go at least as far as Galbraith Lake if possible.
The money spent to camp at the Riverview RV park in North Pole after driving to Deadhorse and back was well worth it if only for the use of their RV washing pad. I spent about four hours, as I recall, to go from completely mud covered to more or less presentable. That's not time spent detailing and waxing and polishing to perfection--just basic standard wash and rinse level cleanliness. Before washing, it was pretty much impossible to tell that there were any stripes or swoopy graphics on my motorhome.
