Getting acquainted with the gas buddy app. It seems the best way to go. Most everything around us East of & near Regina is over $2/L. Found one station in Whitewood SK @ $186.9/L we'll try out tomorrow.
Where's your destination in AK? Maybe we'll cross paths.

Weather has been awesome all week. We like early travel as we shy away from tourist activities. There is the lowest of RV count on the roads as we've ever experienced probably fuel related. Today a half tank of fuel cost us $500. Canadian. :(

Lots of flooding in Manitoba. The highway out of Emerson to Winnipeg is closed. Detour runs you on 14W till 3N - then we took 13N right into Trans Canada 1W. It was a great run & never saw Winnipeg. We're currently in Saskatoon with friends. It been clear sailing... Lots of bridge repair/reconstruction in the Dakotas on I-29 but no inconvenience.

Thanks. I'll mention it to my navigator.
Thanks dtcerrato about the flooding. I'll check Manitoba highway dept on conditions when we get near the border.
