Ice Road Truckers

Season 1

The truckers on the ice road must travel over two hundred miles to reach some of the diamond mines. Carrying tons of machinery over frozen lakes and a twisting landscape at up to sixty degrees below zero is never easy. This map should give you a good example of the length, terrain, and isolation that the truckers deal with for work.

About Season 1

During the harsh winter of Canada's Northwest Territory, remote villages and work camps are cut off from the world. To keep them supplied, a tenacious group of long-haul truckers drive their rigs over hundreds of miles on ice roads cut across the surface of frozen lakes. Sometimes the ice cannot support the heavy rig, and driver and cargo plunge through the ice and sink to the bottom. Hitch a risky ride along with the Ice Road Truckers as they drive headlong into bone-chilling danger.
