Alaska: The Dalton Highway Stage Three: from Deadhorse to Fairbanks, AK The James W. Dalton Highway is a 414-mile gravel and dirt stretch from Livengood to Prudhoe Bay and through some of Alaska’s most remote wilderness. How remote is it up here? There are only three very small towns along the way. The Trans-Alaska pipeline, which runs parallel to the road, is often a driver’s only companion. And from the midpoint (the town of Coldfoot) to the end of the road (Deadhorse), you won’t find gas stations, restaurants, rest stops, or hotels—in fact, you won’t find services of any kind over this entire 240-mile stretch. In other words, if you love lonely roads, this is the drive for you. But not many travelers take this route. The highway—built in 1974 to facilitate the pipeline’s construction—is mostly used only by truckers carrying supplies to oilfield workers in Deadhorse. And it’s a tough drive: steep and slick in places and muddy in others, with those trucks occasionally flinging rocks and gravel onto your windshield. For this reason, most rental cars are not allowed on the Dalton. Still, with a rugged vehicle and plenty of supplies, you can drive through the boreal forests and up to the misty Arctic oilfields of Deadhorse and Prudhoe Bay.
