when i leave with the load from polar the whole aim is the id

it's always the end result so when somebody doubts me

they doubt if i can do this so they go that i can do that

that does bother me i'm not fully

and i get her dillon

and you know he's definitely the wild card on the polar team by name to step up as a leader now i had garden hell for you got a of loads you're gonna move this year we got to get moving okay north road is open saga over the tapi yeah okay okay so make sure you do the north route find the time but if you get on there okay i know was gonna take longer it's probably out there

i'm dating your trip yeah that's okay alright okay buddy snyder

oh yeah

let's get the getting here by

the northern route to garden hill is a long and winding road that adds a hundred miles to the trip

our off by ticking bomb debunk revamp

but it's the only open trail to the first nations community

thus first up in the air

better forward

not tiny dog

we gotta get as much as quick as we hit

uh what they got going on up here

hey there big truck how's it going today buddy i was around to notice more

i got the fire the adventure

a lot the bottom end is open

what was it like

okay the bathroom you gotta be careful okay buddy thank you very much sad happy trails knowledges have a safe trip hell buddy and have a good day

okay well

well well well

yeah there's two ways to get to guard alien along the top which is the law way over the top and then the sharp way down to the bottom

uh well mark says to all the top rice but if i go over the bottom i'll save myself a lot of time so you don't suck by then now now we're back to them till the people on my phone hey the sensible side saved lives

right around profit-taking this all up and the other side is nice

husqvarna model one of a run on ice will make that dough

so here we are in the middle of this big decision so you know what i'm gonna know i use median times

decide that it's not quite that bright

so i've got to take them make an executive decision here which would put them with the small bit of brain cells i got left and take the bottom we'll see how it turns out a hopefully i'll be fine

if not

um

in the manitoba backcountry

uh i got a terrible feeling to fly away so i just kinda want to keep moving without damaging anything

lisa is tackling one of the longest and most remote winner row

and she's flying solo in more ways than one this is my first run without my partner daryl

trying to run the company on my own and not have any help and that's kind of my big challenge and darryl were always chaos and destruction

i guess my life is just chaos now

road to tadulala chaos has a way of finding

ultra safe

hello aram having a feeling that pig bump might have knocked us off something on the bottom of my air can

okay so let's see if i can hear what's going on i'm feeling i'll be able to

to power their breaks big rigs rely on compressed air stored in onboard tanks

it's in there somewhere

please lisa kid find and fix the airlink quickly she'll have a truck that won't be able to stop

i figured out what it is and i think i know what i gotta do there's a rubber valve in there and it looks like it's stuck open from the cold what i should do is light it on fire and just unfreeze whatever's in there

lisa hopes that by hitting the rubber bell from the outside an old truckers trick it will properly close and stop the leak

we'll do our best not to melt the valve and then we stuck out here forever

uh

it's called burning wherever they come on first sight

when melting it

i'm just scared i'm gonna melt it

ah

it's holding air so whatever i did fixed it

that's wrong

of rubber and plastic stuff gates cold weather and so it tends to stick open paper towel and put them under their current melt out the ice chunks out of the development sometimes i will help it close back in action pieces

still needs to brave a hundred and fifty miles and floor she can deliver her first note of the season road zero lisa one

meanwhile

as daylight fades

three hundred miles away

other over the bottom when i was all about the job quite a drive i gave a whole half a day if i could pull this off

arc has made the bold call to defy his former boss and take the shorter more risky route to garden ill on a road just over

uh

but the real test is now before him

is the recently frozen ice crossing at island lake okay boys and girls

ah

this is my first ice crossing in the season

replacement one that i'm not supposed to be vacant

as far as what it looks like a catchier hell of a lock is his pitch black out there there's nobody here i don't see any sign matter-of-fact i don't see that vey

every second counts when so many loads need to be delivered but attempting an ice crossing at night on a newly open road is a risky proposition even for an experienced driver when your first start else and you hit the ice for the first time that noise

it's a little theory i use that word

you don't know what the hell is going to happen

in this sometimes you're the first one across as some of these some of these ice roads up there i don't take the check that well money i've heard the ice crack shows a simplified twenty-two you can hear it just try block significant going across under the truck and everything so like it's got it's moments

i don't see any truck tracks so maybe we're the first ones crossing

this better be good ice

ah

uh lower honor

not get in over my head

uh was

crackle pop hear it

uh whoa don't like that

we're still play now for duh

um here's legs up here and i think that's the end of it right over there thank god

what arts not out of the woods yet there's a there's landline

livers failed

just beyond the shoreline a fifteen percent grade hills dans between art and his delivery i gotta give this a little fuel to get to the top of this soda scale the incline he left the game speed and momentum while still on the ice you want to give it to it and you've got a whole lot back because if you don't go

oh go faster faster the next thing if you go into a class that we have store

if he goes too fast he could rupture the ice at the edge of the lake and said he and his low into the frigid waters below hang on buddy roger fingers

uh we are off the ice

the sale buddy arts back on solid ground but if he can't get his rig over the massive bill he could find himself back on the weekend ice and all other trouble

under space

uh no

oh my baby my baby love my baby

uh

in northern manitoba

uh no no no no no

art books risky shortcut has the trucking veterans spinning his wheels

uh

at a standstill on the fifteen degree incline i gotta go back

with the

there's nowhere for art to go but back onto the weakened ice will of a god

uh romeo

ugh keep your fingers crossed

hey baby backed up onto the nice here we're about to take a run enter

but before she can deliver any real low staffs and cleanup duty

retrieving a band trailer that was left bed after last year's melts

yeah i'll tell you all there

y'all rock and steep inclines and sharp curve

and step is bob deal or driving without a trailer

way more dangerous mobs killing them in his trousers alone because you're attached to something you have weight pushing you on the road you have more grip you're actually safer when you have a load

along with your own you gotta stop here

i'm gonna jump chamber times

to prevent the loss of traction a novice driver will take the precaution of chaining up

a skill she learned from her mentor todd dewey just last year

what are you trying to tell me here am i not know how to put chains on my tires and we're going onto the ice road oh lord

ultra shoes on this bitch

each set of chains weighs about one hundred pounds alright

almost as much as deaf waves

come on

can just short and come on

and mad

uh i'm gonna lose it

i'm gonna lose it

ah nah how hard is it to put chains on not at all but of course rookie heroes and look at her not doing it

if steph can't get the chains off a basic trucking fast she risked losing control of her rig or worse losing her job and older

right there
