Does anyone have a route plan and notes on overnight camping spots for a trip to Tuktoyaktuk in August? Thanks

Does this help? This is last summer's wandering. For details have a look through AROUND - Canada 2022 & 2023 - you'll have to scroll through the posts to find the ones which are relevant, since the blog covers our overall travel including time in Vancouver, Montréal, and Nova Scotia which are not on this map, and then we wandered around BC, Yukon, NWT, Alberta, BC, Alberta, and back to BC.

Assuming that by "gas" you mean fuel for the vehicle and not for the stove as long as you refuel every time you can, once away from the populated areas in the southern provinces, you'll be fine. This assumes "normal" consumption - we averaged 12 L/100 km - we had a range of about 700 km and this was more than sufficient. The longest stretch with no fuel was from the start of the Dempster until Eagle Plains; the pump at the start of the Dempster was not operational the third time was passed it however if you fill at Dawson CIty you'll be OK.

iOverlander is good for camping spots.
