Esso Chetwynd — Highway 97 North Peace River Fuel Stop
Chetwynd sits at the junction of Highway 97 and Highway 29, making it a genuine crossroads resupply for anyone running north toward the Peace River country or west through the Pine Pass toward Prince George. The Esso station here handles regular, diesel, and propane. There’s a convenience store attached, and the town has a grocery store, hardware, and a Tim Hortons if you need to resupply more seriously before heading into backcountry around Moberly Lake or the Williston Reservoir FSR network.
If you’re approaching from the south via Dawson Creek or heading toward the Hart Highway (Highway 97) corridor, this is a station worth topping off at — the next reliable fuel north toward Fort St. John is straightforward, but gaps heading west into Tweedsmuir country are long. Verify hours before arriving in shoulder season.
Top off here before the Pine Pass or Peace River runs.
