How Much Gas to Alaska? Our Gas Log

Here's our gas log for our first Alaskan road trip:  Ann Arbor, MI to Alaska and back.  [Click on images to enlarge.]



For long road trips, the gas log is a helpful resource to keep track of your miles, money spent, cost of gas, and prepare for the future or the returning route of your journey.  It helps you plan, especially if you might need to make additional money on the road.

Here are some estimated stats from our gas log:

$1555.19 total spent on gas 

$626.77 spent on gas from Ann Arbor, MI to Alaska border

+13,000 miles traveled over 3 months

30 mi/gal average in 2006 Chevy Aveo FULLY loaded with gear and 2 people

$5.36 / gal - Dawson City, Yukon - Most expensive gas.  Gas is more expensive in Canada and as you travel further north

0 flat tires.  The majority of roads are pretty good!

If you're thinking of an Alaskan road trip, we hope this helps!

Do it!
