Trying to get my senile brain to remember -- is Coldfoot the last gas/food stop before getting to Prudhoe Bay?Another of the many expansive views on the north slope of the Dalton haul road...
You are correct in your recall sir…and it’s still that way today. Coldfoot is last gas (at $5.50/gal last month when we went through), and then it’s all the way to the end at Deadhorse for the next fuel. I always have at least one five’er with me when I go up there…gives me a option or two…and always two spares on rims!Trying to get my senile brain to remember -- is Coldfoot the last gas/food stop before getting to Prudhoe Bay?

Fly fishing for Arctic Grayling with a 4wt rod is something that I enjoy up here, and there are a couple places along the Dalton that I like to fish, but it's not a core component of that particular road-trip. That said, there are many other trips and places where fishing for various species is a central theme of the trip.I gased up & grabbed a bite at CF when I was there.
Man, you're hauling a load! Looks like you even do BYOW, huh?
Do you do any fishing along the way?
Been trying to find a bigfoot or northern lite for months to upgrade my old truck camper. Tough to find them down here. That pic should be a sales brochure for side door campers!!You are correct in your recall sir…and it’s still that way today.
