Re: Alaska Owners?

So, I was thinking about driving the FJ up to Prince Rupert (did this once before by motorcycle) this summer and then taking the ferry up to Juneau,with a day trip to Skagway and then back on the ferry to Seward.

Back on land, I'd drive over to Homer and then back up thru Anchorage and Denali to Fairbanks and then back to the states via Hwy 1 to Whitehorse, Dawson Creek, Edmunton & Calgary to Great Falls and Salt Lake City and then back to San Francisco.

I once took a dead end road about 40 miles out of Fairbanks to a run down resort, but I was wondering ... how far can you actually drive up towards the Arctic Circle and still get gas for the drive back?

I've got the MAF aux tank now and, if I keep my speed down should be good for at least 550-575 miles one way and am looking for some interesting places to explore. Doesn't have to be serious "off road' (gravel and dirt roads are fine).
