It is Saturday morning. You know what that means. Spot will go live in an hour or so.

Beautiful sunny morning. First stop, Yukon Camp for gas then the Arctic Circle sign. Then, onward north.

Yup, they have 2! But I believe they both only sell diesle and 87. And they are fairly expensive, between 6 & 8 per gallon last I checked
