Description :
Travel treacherous ice roads with the world's bravest drivers as they risk their lives in another high-risk, high-reward ice road season. With extreme arctic conditions, the pressure of an unforgiving delivery schedule, and billions of dollars at stake, these ice road truckers put their lives on the line every day in the hopes of transporting as many loads of heavy machinery and supplies as possible to remote communities and gas exploration sites over 100 miles north of the Arctic Circle. Debilitating cold, the lack of creature comforts, and severe isolation are all in a day's work but the most dangerous of all are the ice roads, built not only on rivers, but miles out into the Arctic Ocean! One miscalculation of the road, bad weather, or an unseen hazard can mean the difference between life and death for these drivers — even slight slip-ups in speed can force the frigid water to crash up through the ice with catastrophic consequences. It's a bone-numbing job — and it's just the kind of challenge that keeps this special breed of driver coming back for more.
