Priciest gas on the route ($5–6/gal) — splash only enough to reach Carson (~90 mi), fill cheap in NV. Grab something hot. (Also Valero, 377 Main St.)

N/A
Supply stop. Conway Summit (8,138 ft, route high point) just crossed — descend into the Bridgeport valley.

STAY ON US-395 N — no turns this leg.
Just climb Conway Summit (route high point 8,138 ft), then descend to Bridgeport. Gas is on Main St (= 395) — easy. Watch the grade both ways.
