Default Driving from Vancouver to Yellowknife in late Dec

Im planning a trip at the end of the year to Yellowknife late

Don't do it. Fly. The NWT is a very inhospitable place to motorists in
December. Services like gas, food, and lodging are very few, far
between, and expensive. Daylight hours are few. Places to stop are
scarce. The going will be slow. A breakdown could be life threatening.
