NARRATOR: Into danger.
11
00:00:29,793 --> 00:00:31,068
While Rick and Hugh--
12
00:00:31,172 --> 00:00:34,344
I got a freaking [inaudible].

00:00:34,448 --> 00:00:36,896
NARRATOR: Find
trouble at every turn.
14
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,379

NARRATOR: 5:00 AM at theCarlile truck yard in Fairbanks.
18
00:01:18,931 --> 00:01:19,793
Crap.
19
00:01:19,896 --> 00:01:23,344
It's so deep out here.
20
00:01:23,448 --> 00:01:25,620
NARRATOR: Lisa Kelly
is digging her way out
21
00:01:25,724 --> 00:01:27,448
of yesterday's blizzard.
22
00:01:27,551 --> 00:01:31,482
Got a pickup truck and
some steel going to Prudhoe.
23
00:01:31,620 --> 00:01:34,000
[inaudible]
24
00:01:34,103 --> 00:01:36,482
[music playing]
25
00:01:54,448 --> 00:01:56,862
LISA KELLY: For crying out loud.
26
00:01:56,965 --> 00:01:58,827
Geeze.
27
00:01:58,931 --> 00:02:00,379
What's happening?
28
00:02:15,344 --> 00:02:17,241
Holy crap.
29
00:02:17,344 --> 00:02:21,206
I think there's too much snow orsomething [inaudible] my truck.
30
00:02:30,758 --> 00:02:33,137
There.
31
00:02:33,241 --> 00:02:34,448
There.
32
00:02:34,551 --> 00:02:37,655
It made noise this time.
33
00:02:37,793 --> 00:02:40,586
NARRATOR: Lisa locks
her trailer in place.
34
00:02:40,689 --> 00:02:44,586
But hauling a 10 ton pickup
isn't the kind of challenge
35
00:02:44,689 --> 00:02:46,689
she was hoping for.
36
00:02:46,793 --> 00:02:50,103
Why the heck am I
hooked to a pickup truck?
37
00:02:50,206 --> 00:02:54,034
I'm a heavy hauler now.
38
00:02:54,137 --> 00:02:56,000
NARRATOR: 10 days ago--
39
00:02:56,103 --> 00:02:57,482
WORKER: Stop, stop, stop.
40
00:02:57,586 --> 00:02:59,448
[bleep].
41
00:02:59,551 --> 00:03:02,068
NARRATOR: A rookie mistake
cost Lisa her chance
42
00:03:02,172 --> 00:03:05,931
to join the heavy haul team.
43
00:03:06,034 --> 00:03:07,655
Heavy haul is
not for everybody.
44
00:03:10,517 --> 00:03:13,172
NARRATOR: Now, she'll
have to earn her way back,
45
00:03:13,275 --> 00:03:16,620
one light load at a time.
46
00:03:16,724 --> 00:03:20,068
LISA KELLY: [inaudible]
I freaking have it
47
00:03:20,172 --> 00:03:22,068
and I still don't have it.
48
00:03:22,172 --> 00:03:24,275
Who would have figured
heavy hauler would be harder
49
00:03:24,379 --> 00:03:27,586
to get into than the movies?
50
00:03:27,689 --> 00:03:30,034
[music playing]
51
00:03:37,310 --> 00:03:39,448
RADIO: From the Department
of Transportation warning--
52
00:03:39,551 --> 00:03:43,620
blowing snow, low visibility
up on the haul road.
53
00:03:43,758 --> 00:03:46,000
LISA KELLY: Now we're going
to go play in the snow today.
54
00:03:46,103 --> 00:03:49,000
It's going to be fun.
55
00:03:49,103 --> 00:03:51,137
NARRATOR: 300 miles north--
56
00:03:51,241 --> 00:03:54,517
RADIO: Wind chill factor
is up to the 60 below mark.
57
00:03:54,620 --> 00:03:56,724
If you're out there
on the road, you guys,
58
00:03:56,827 --> 00:03:58,344
keep it between
the lines and we'll
59
00:03:58,448 --> 00:03:59,655
see you when you get home.
60
00:03:59,758 --> 00:04:02,137
This is just ridiculous.
61
00:04:02,241 --> 00:04:05,827
NARRATOR: Nasty weather is the
last thing Dave Redmon wants
62
00:04:05,931 --> 00:04:07,551
to see.
63
00:04:07,655 --> 00:04:09,413
DAVE REDMON: Just got
to get this trailer up.
64
00:04:09,517 --> 00:04:11,379
I mean, they've been on my ass.
65
00:04:11,482 --> 00:04:13,724
It's just been a real
thorn in my butt.
66
00:04:13,827 --> 00:04:15,551
And now we've just
got to make the call.
67
00:04:15,655 --> 00:04:17,655
You know, just go get it.
68
00:04:17,793 --> 00:04:20,482
NARRATOR: Yesterday--
69
00:04:20,586 --> 00:04:25,379
Dropping this trailer so
we can head back to Coldfoot.
70
00:04:25,482 --> 00:04:27,275
NARRATOR: The massive
blizzard forced
71
00:04:27,379 --> 00:04:31,310
Dave to abandon his load of
pipe on the side of the road.
72
00:04:31,413 --> 00:04:33,724
Just making no sense to stay.
73
00:04:33,827 --> 00:04:38,344
And it's just steadily
going downhill quick.
74
00:04:38,448 --> 00:04:41,965
NARRATOR: Now, he's determined
to retrieve the trailer
75
00:04:42,068 --> 00:04:44,551
and finish the run.
76
00:04:44,655 --> 00:04:46,931
DAVE REDMON: You know, the
weather, it's just the wind is
77
00:04:47,034 --> 00:04:48,172
blowing so bad, it's drifting.
78
00:04:48,275 --> 00:04:49,965
The road is shut.
79
00:04:50,103 --> 00:04:53,034
NARRATOR: But with
another storm on the way,
80
00:04:53,137 --> 00:04:54,275
it's not going to be easy.
81
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,068
DAVE REDMON: Yeah.
82
00:05:00,172 --> 00:05:01,793
I'm trying to bobtail
back down to my trailer.
83
00:05:01,896 --> 00:05:04,724
But we've got no heat in here,
because we're not generating
84
00:05:04,827 --> 00:05:06,103
any engine heat.
85
00:05:15,620 --> 00:05:17,482
We had to stop here on
the side of the road.
86
00:05:17,586 --> 00:05:19,655
We got no heat.
87
00:05:19,758 --> 00:05:22,931
NARRATOR: Driving a big rig
with no heat at 50 below
88
00:05:23,034 --> 00:05:25,000
isn't just miserable.
89
00:05:25,137 --> 00:05:26,620
It's dangerous.
90
00:05:26,724 --> 00:05:29,448
[music playing]
91
00:05:29,551 --> 00:05:35,172
Just going to make sure thehot water valves are turned on.
92
00:05:35,275 --> 00:05:41,965
So I have to plug this hole
up, just to get some heat.
93
00:05:42,068 --> 00:05:44,241
NARRATOR: Freezing wind
blowing on the radiator
94
00:05:44,344 --> 00:05:47,793
makes the in-cab heating
system all but worthless.
95
00:05:50,724 --> 00:05:51,586
Yeah.
96
00:05:51,689 --> 00:05:53,241
I'm improvising
big time, actually.
97
00:05:57,379 --> 00:06:00,896
That's got too many holes in it.
98
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:02,551
Just trying to block
some of this air,
99
00:06:02,655 --> 00:06:05,241
so I can get some heat built up.
100
00:06:09,793 --> 00:06:12,275
And this tape might not
even hold in this minus 50.
101
00:06:20,172 --> 00:06:22,034
This ain't [bleep] gonna work.
102
00:06:25,068 --> 00:06:26,965
It ain't going to work.
103
00:06:27,068 --> 00:06:30,068
Just going to have
to deal with it.
104
00:06:30,172 --> 00:06:33,344
NARRATOR: With no
way to trap the heat,
105
00:06:33,482 --> 00:06:38,206
Dave continues the long,
cold ride into the storm.
106
00:06:38,310 --> 00:06:40,000
DAVE REDMON: And if we
get stuck somewhere,
107
00:06:40,103 --> 00:06:41,965
we could be in trouble.
108
00:06:42,068 --> 00:06:44,586
I guess the bad
stuff's fixing to come.
109
00:06:44,689 --> 00:06:45,413
I don't know.
110
00:06:45,517 --> 00:06:47,448
It's not looking really good.
111
00:06:47,551 --> 00:06:49,275
All we can do is just
keep plugging forward.
112
00:06:56,551 --> 00:07:02,586
NARRATOR: 2,600 miles east--
113
00:07:02,689 --> 00:07:06,827
Hugh Rowland and Rick Yemm
have hustled up another load.
114
00:07:06,965 --> 00:07:08,000
Hey.
How's it going?
115
00:07:08,103 --> 00:07:08,793
Hey, not bad.
116
00:07:08,896 --> 00:07:09,896
You, guy?
117
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:10,689
Yeah.
118
00:07:10,793 --> 00:07:11,896
[bleep]
119
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,310
NARRATOR: Last week, their
trailers took a beating.
120
00:07:15,413 --> 00:07:19,758
And they're not welcome back
at First Nations Transport.
121
00:07:19,862 --> 00:07:21,965
What I can't
figure out is, you
122
00:07:22,068 --> 00:07:24,862
and Rick come back with
two broken trailers.
123
00:07:24,965 --> 00:07:26,931
You know, what's the problem?
124
00:07:27,034 --> 00:07:28,896
That's the way
it goes down, man.
125
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,068
I'm finished with you guys.
126
00:07:30,172 --> 00:07:32,413
I don't need you coming here
and wrecking everything.
127
00:07:32,517 --> 00:07:33,206
Adios.
128
00:07:33,310 --> 00:07:34,862
HUGH ROWLAND: [bleep] you.
129
00:07:34,965 --> 00:07:37,827
NARRATOR: Now, they're
counting on Polar Industries
130
00:07:37,965 --> 00:07:40,000
to keep the paychecks coming.
131
00:07:40,103 --> 00:07:44,241
In this load, we have
fuel tanks for Muskrat Dam.
132
00:07:44,344 --> 00:07:45,034
OK.
133
00:07:46,068 --> 00:07:47,344
They're going to
freeze to death.
134
00:07:47,448 --> 00:07:50,413
So it's kind of important that
those guys get there pretty
135
00:07:50,517 --> 00:07:53,379
early and as soon as they can.
136
00:07:53,482 --> 00:07:54,413
But be careful.
137
00:07:54,517 --> 00:07:55,827
Because those roads
are really rough.
138
00:07:55,931 --> 00:07:59,000
NARRATOR: The 400 mile
trail to Muskrat Dam
139
00:07:59,103 --> 00:08:01,896
runs into Ontario
province, making
140
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:07,310
it one of the most isolated
winter roads in Canada.
141
00:08:07,413 --> 00:08:08,896
One more thing I
have to mention--
142
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,275
there's no cell phone coverage.
143
00:08:10,379 --> 00:08:14,827
So you guys are going to be outthere for two days, with no way
144
00:08:14,965 --> 00:08:16,379
how to communicate
with civilization.
145
00:08:16,482 --> 00:08:18,931
So just be cautious.
146
00:08:19,034 --> 00:08:23,310
NARRATOR: But Hugh and Rick
can't afford to be picky.
147
00:08:23,413 --> 00:08:24,172
Are you coming too?
148
00:08:24,275 --> 00:08:25,586
Nope.
149
00:08:25,689 --> 00:08:27,620
What'd it do,
scare you last time?
150
00:08:27,724 --> 00:08:28,517
[laughter]
151
00:08:28,620 --> 00:08:30,655
Nobody wants to run with you.
152
00:08:30,758 --> 00:08:33,068
[laughter]
153
00:08:37,068 --> 00:08:40,379
Well, I got an envirotank
they call this, an envirotank.
154
00:08:40,482 --> 00:08:44,068
It's a storage tank for thefuel up in the Indian reserve up
155
00:08:44,172 --> 00:08:45,827
at Muskrat Dam.
156
00:08:45,965 --> 00:08:50,413
They keep running out of dieselfuel and gasoline up there.
157
00:08:50,517 --> 00:08:53,172
It's not really the
price of the load.
158
00:08:53,275 --> 00:08:55,655
It's more of the case of
what the load actually is.
159
00:08:55,758 --> 00:08:57,310
This is fuel for
them for the year.
160
00:08:57,413 --> 00:09:00,689
So the more tanks they get,
the bigger the tank farm gets,
161
00:09:00,793 --> 00:09:02,965
the more fuel they canstockpile for the whole season.
162
00:09:03,068 --> 00:09:08,000
So it's a lot more than
just the cost of a tank.
163
00:09:08,103 --> 00:09:09,965
Well, let's hit the road here.
164
00:09:13,482 --> 00:09:15,310
[music playing]
165
00:09:21,068 --> 00:09:23,172
Another big run, big cash.
166
00:09:27,724 --> 00:09:29,241
There's no signs
where we're going.
167
00:09:29,344 --> 00:09:30,517
We've got to do it all by map.
168
00:09:30,620 --> 00:09:33,344
So I hope like [bleep]
we don't get lost.
169
00:09:36,689 --> 00:09:39,517
Every single run's been to
a different [bleep] place.
170
00:09:39,620 --> 00:09:42,275
We haven't gotten any type
of a break on oh, yeah, OK,
171
00:09:42,379 --> 00:09:43,827
I know this corner's coming up.
172
00:09:43,931 --> 00:09:46,275
I know that
straightaway's there.
173
00:09:46,379 --> 00:09:48,965
Here we are, blind again.
174
00:09:49,068 --> 00:09:51,000
We do these kind of crazy jobs.
175
00:09:51,103 --> 00:09:54,482
And we're kind of used to
the fact that there's no 911.
176
00:09:54,620 --> 00:09:56,310
Well, I guess you can
call him 9 and me 11,
177
00:09:56,413 --> 00:09:58,689
because that's the only two
things that will [bleep] help
178
00:09:58,793 --> 00:09:59,482
us out here.
179
00:10:03,344 --> 00:10:04,655
[music playing]
180
00:10:04,758 --> 00:10:07,379
NARRATOR: On the
Canadian winter roads,
181
00:10:07,482 --> 00:10:10,482
Alex Debogorski is looking
for his next paycheck.
182
00:10:13,551 --> 00:10:15,103
Working here at
St. Theresa's Point.
183
00:10:15,206 --> 00:10:16,448
I had a fellow approach me.
184
00:10:16,551 --> 00:10:17,793
He's got a construction company.
185
00:10:17,896 --> 00:10:23,172
He wants his pickup
hauled back to a shop.
186
00:10:23,275 --> 00:10:26,137
NARRATOR: Hauling a pickup
truck from Saint Theresa back
187
00:10:26,275 --> 00:10:29,344
to Winnipeg should be
an easy day's work.
188
00:10:32,241 --> 00:10:35,448
But the last 10 miles
into town will take Alex
189
00:10:35,551 --> 00:10:39,517
across the thinning ice
of a 75 foot deep lake.
190
00:11:00,344 --> 00:11:02,931
Hey, shiny.
191
00:11:03,034 --> 00:11:04,965
It was windy the
last couple days.
192
00:11:05,068 --> 00:11:06,448
So that wind is
polishing the ice.
193
00:11:14,896 --> 00:11:19,172
My friend, he did this all his
life, [inaudible] trucking.
194
00:11:19,275 --> 00:11:20,965
He had a heavy load
in the springtime.
195
00:11:21,068 --> 00:11:22,275
Probably March.
196
00:11:22,379 --> 00:11:24,482
And he got out there and he
started having water coming
197
00:11:24,586 --> 00:11:25,724
through the ice.
198
00:11:25,827 --> 00:11:28,517
As he was driving, water
was shooting up in the air.
199
00:11:28,620 --> 00:11:30,241
He knew he was screwed.
200
00:11:30,344 --> 00:11:31,896
You can't stop.
You can't turn around.
201
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,206
There's nothing you can do.
You just have to keep going.
202
00:11:34,344 --> 00:11:37,137
He says he just pulled her
out of gear, opened the door,
203
00:11:37,241 --> 00:11:38,206
stepped out.
204
00:11:38,310 --> 00:11:40,137
He took about six steps.
205
00:11:40,241 --> 00:11:42,206
He looked over his shoulder
and he said all he saw
206
00:11:42,310 --> 00:11:44,379
was a whole sheet of ice
tipped up like a big door.
207
00:11:44,482 --> 00:11:46,482
And he said, the whole
load just sort of slid off.
208
00:11:46,586 --> 00:11:47,862
He just saw the
end of the truck.
209
00:11:47,965 --> 00:11:49,310
And then the truck disappeared.
210
00:11:49,413 --> 00:11:51,413
And the ice just
came back down again.
211
00:11:51,517 --> 00:11:53,000
And then it went in
100 feet of water.
212
00:11:53,103 --> 00:11:54,172
So it all fell to the bottom.
213
00:12:06,275 --> 00:12:08,586
NARRATOR: With the
lake behind him,
214
00:12:08,689 --> 00:12:11,689
Alex pulls into the village
of St. Theresa Point.
215
00:12:17,965 --> 00:12:20,551
In the bush,
equipment is limited.
216
00:12:20,655 --> 00:12:24,000
They'll have to use a front
end loader to lift the pickup
217
00:12:24,103 --> 00:12:25,344
onto the flatbed.
218
00:12:25,448 --> 00:12:28,827
You lift the front end upand put the wheels on the deck.
219
00:12:28,931 --> 00:12:31,655
I expect it'll work.
220
00:12:31,758 --> 00:12:33,724
I'm sure they've done
this a few times before.
221
00:12:45,310 --> 00:12:46,724
Looks good.
222
00:12:46,827 --> 00:12:49,206
Good enough.
223
00:12:49,310 --> 00:12:50,517
You do what you gotta do.
224
00:12:54,827 --> 00:12:57,137
NARRATOR: With the
pickup strapped down,
225
00:12:57,241 --> 00:12:58,620
Alex heads back to Winnipeg.
226
00:13:01,482 --> 00:13:04,206
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: It's a load.
227
00:13:04,310 --> 00:13:06,965
It helps me to beat Hugh
and Rick in the load count.
228
00:13:07,068 --> 00:13:09,965
And that's almost as
good as getting paid.
229
00:13:10,068 --> 00:13:11,103
Maybe even better.
230
00:13:11,206 --> 00:13:13,206
Especially if it's the one
load that puts me over.
231
00:13:21,310 --> 00:13:23,896
NARRATOR: Back in Fairbanks--
232
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,172
You know, this wind's
going to blow me away.
233
00:13:28,275 --> 00:13:31,034
Holy [bleep].
234
00:13:31,137 --> 00:13:35,793
NARRATOR: Rookie Maya
Sieber reports for duty.
235
00:13:35,896 --> 00:13:37,275
Today I'm going
to meet with Lane.
236
00:13:37,379 --> 00:13:38,482
I'm here at Carlile.
237
00:13:38,586 --> 00:13:41,068
And we're going to talk
about my training process
238
00:13:41,172 --> 00:13:43,000
and how it's been going.
239
00:13:43,103 --> 00:13:44,724
NARRATOR: Yesterday--
240
00:13:44,827 --> 00:13:47,206
It looks like staring
into a white wall.
241
00:13:47,344 --> 00:13:50,931
NARRATOR: Maya drove into the
heart of a blinding snowstorm
242
00:13:51,034 --> 00:13:53,482
to deliver an
urgent load of pipe.
243
00:13:56,965 --> 00:13:58,793
MAYA SIEBER: I feel like
I'm ready to move on.
244
00:13:58,896 --> 00:14:00,931
I feel like I'm ready to
finally get my own truck.
245
00:14:05,758 --> 00:14:09,000
I got some good news for
you, and some bad news.
246
00:14:09,103 --> 00:14:10,275
OK.
247
00:14:10,379 --> 00:14:12,068
I talked to Phil.
248
00:14:12,172 --> 00:14:16,931
That he thinks you're ready.
249
00:14:17,034 --> 00:14:18,586
As far as the bad
news is just simply
250
00:14:18,689 --> 00:14:19,758
that it's a different truck.
251
00:14:19,896 --> 00:14:21,379
It's not going to be a W900.
252
00:14:21,482 --> 00:14:24,000
Oh, come on.
253
00:14:24,103 --> 00:14:26,103
So all the training
that you did in that truck
254
00:14:26,206 --> 00:14:29,172
with that big power and
that transmission is going
255
00:14:29,275 --> 00:14:31,517
to be start over a little bit.
256
00:14:31,620 --> 00:14:32,586
Understandable.
257
00:14:32,689 --> 00:14:34,034
I've been through that before.
258
00:14:34,137 --> 00:14:36,551
And it'll certainly get you
through the first season here.
259
00:14:36,655 --> 00:14:38,000
Cool.
I'm excited.
260
00:14:38,103 --> 00:14:39,413
Thank you.
- Good.
261
00:14:39,517 --> 00:14:40,206
OK.
262
00:14:40,310 --> 00:14:41,344
So the truck is 1301--
263
00:14:41,448 --> 00:14:42,931
NARRATOR: After
just two solo runs--
264
00:14:43,034 --> 00:14:43,965
OK.
Great.
265
00:14:44,068 --> 00:14:44,758
Thank you.
- OK.
266
00:14:44,862 --> 00:14:45,724
All right.
Thanks, Maya.
267
00:14:45,827 --> 00:14:46,827
See you later.
268
00:14:46,931 --> 00:14:48,724
NARRATOR: Her gutsy
performance in the storm
269
00:14:48,827 --> 00:14:51,448
has earned Maya her own rig.
270
00:14:51,551 --> 00:14:54,689
I've been really anticipating
getting my own truck.
271
00:14:54,827 --> 00:14:56,586
And that's getting back
to trucking normally,
272
00:14:56,689 --> 00:14:59,206
and that's trucking alone.
273
00:14:59,310 --> 00:15:02,379
NARRATOR: Out in the truck yard,shop manager Gary McConnell
274
00:15:02,482 --> 00:15:05,758
gets to work on Maya's new rig.
275
00:15:05,862 --> 00:15:06,586
Oh, man.
276
00:15:06,689 --> 00:15:07,689
She's dead.
277
00:15:07,793 --> 00:15:08,655
She ain't gonna go.
278
00:15:08,758 --> 00:15:10,275
NARRATOR: After
months of sitting--
279
00:15:10,379 --> 00:15:11,620
She won't even hit.
280
00:15:11,724 --> 00:15:13,517
NARRATOR: The truck's
batteries are dead.
281
00:15:13,620 --> 00:15:15,793
Just going to have to
put the chain through it
282
00:15:15,896 --> 00:15:18,482
and tow it to the shop, I guess.
283
00:15:18,586 --> 00:15:20,448
[music playing]
284
00:15:22,517 --> 00:15:24,448
Hooking chain on
the bumper here.
285
00:15:24,551 --> 00:15:26,862
Well, we're going to be
putting this new Ford EcoBoost
286
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:27,689
to the test.
287
00:15:27,793 --> 00:15:29,275
We'll see how she goes.
288
00:15:29,379 --> 00:15:30,758
It's a lot of weight
for the truck.
289
00:15:30,862 --> 00:15:32,000
All right.
290
00:15:32,103 --> 00:15:33,241
Get fired up here.
291
00:15:38,206 --> 00:15:39,103
Ready.
Here we go.
292
00:15:39,206 --> 00:15:39,931
Give it a shot.
293
00:15:49,172 --> 00:15:50,034
Come on.
294
00:16:00,586 --> 00:16:01,482
All right.
295
00:16:01,586 --> 00:16:02,965
We got it.
296
00:16:09,448 --> 00:16:12,000
Anyway, looks like
we got it done.
297
00:16:12,103 --> 00:16:13,482
Take that truck
into the shop there.
298
00:16:13,586 --> 00:16:15,758
We'll put a new set
of batteries in it.
299
00:16:15,862 --> 00:16:16,551
All right.
300
00:16:16,655 --> 00:16:17,379
That's how we do it.
301
00:16:19,827 --> 00:16:22,413
NARRATOR: 150
miles up the road--
302
00:16:22,517 --> 00:16:24,931
[music playing]
303
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,206
It's snowy out, so we
need to go slowly out.
304
00:16:37,310 --> 00:16:40,517
Because otherwise we're
going to be dusted out.
305
00:16:40,620 --> 00:16:42,310
I'm a poet.
306
00:16:42,413 --> 00:16:45,275
NARRATOR: Lisa Kelly is
hauling a 10 ton pickup
307
00:16:45,379 --> 00:16:46,620
into the gathering storm.
308
00:16:51,896 --> 00:16:55,172
Blowing from the west again.
309
00:16:55,275 --> 00:16:58,586
It's the way the bad
storms come from.
310
00:16:58,689 --> 00:17:00,000
Been a big westward storm.
311
00:17:04,413 --> 00:17:05,275
Oh.
312
00:17:05,379 --> 00:17:07,206
That's nice.
313
00:17:07,310 --> 00:17:12,448
NARRATOR: The tarp that protectsthe windshield has come loose.
314
00:17:12,586 --> 00:17:13,275
Damnit.
315
00:17:30,137 --> 00:17:33,482
Didn't even try to stay.
316
00:17:33,586 --> 00:17:35,379
Ahh.
317
00:17:35,482 --> 00:17:38,000
NARRATOR: The last thing
Lisa wants to deliver
318
00:17:38,103 --> 00:17:42,482
is a damaged load when she's
hoping to regain the boss's
319
00:17:42,620 --> 00:17:43,379
confidence.
320
00:17:47,448 --> 00:17:51,310
LISA KELLY: You ain't
gonna come loose this time.
321
00:17:51,413 --> 00:17:53,310
It's hard to get a good
[inaudible] on your door
322
00:17:53,413 --> 00:17:54,896
when you've got your
toes hanging off
323
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:56,655
four feet above the ground.
324
00:17:56,758 --> 00:17:57,448
Whoa.
325
00:18:02,068 --> 00:18:03,413
I'm going to fall off of here.
326
00:18:11,310 --> 00:18:12,724
Truck's OK.
327
00:18:12,827 --> 00:18:15,172
It's very, very
challenging today.
328
00:18:21,206 --> 00:18:22,586
There we go.
329
00:18:26,655 --> 00:18:29,344
NARRATOR: 75 miles
east of Winnipeg--
330
00:18:31,965 --> 00:18:36,724
Now we're on, just rolling
into Pickle Lake here.
331
00:18:36,827 --> 00:18:39,620
Told us we got to fuel up
here, because there's nothing
332
00:18:39,724 --> 00:18:42,034
for the rest of the way in.
333
00:18:46,275 --> 00:18:51,655
NARRATOR: But as Rick fuels
up, he notices a problem.
334
00:19:03,275 --> 00:19:06,448
RICK YEMM: [inaudible].
335
00:19:06,551 --> 00:19:08,344
What's wrong?
336
00:19:08,448 --> 00:19:09,758
I'm screwed.
337
00:19:09,862 --> 00:19:12,068
We've got to figure out a way
to get that [bleep] saddle
338
00:19:12,172 --> 00:19:13,000
tank fixed now.
339
00:19:13,103 --> 00:19:14,344
Did you talk to
this guy in that--
340
00:19:14,448 --> 00:19:16,862
Well, he just said, if yougot a three inch ratchet strap,
341
00:19:16,965 --> 00:19:18,000
we can ratchet strap it up.
342
00:19:20,551 --> 00:19:25,517
This strap on Rick's tank
broke from the rough roads.
343
00:19:25,655 --> 00:19:28,344
NARRATOR: After burning the
bridge with one company,
344
00:19:28,448 --> 00:19:32,310
the last thing Rick needs is
a reputation for not finishing
345
00:19:32,413 --> 00:19:33,103
the job.
346
00:19:40,379 --> 00:19:42,862
I'm just going to put
a ratchet strap on it
347
00:19:42,965 --> 00:19:46,827
and hope it does the trick here.
348
00:19:46,931 --> 00:19:49,448
You've got it through theframe there, or on both of them
349
00:19:49,551 --> 00:19:50,758
or--
RICK YEMM: Come on.
350
00:19:50,862 --> 00:19:51,724
[bleep] stinks.
351
00:19:54,758 --> 00:19:57,310
We had to get a winch
strap and winch it up tight.
352
00:19:57,448 --> 00:20:00,034
He's going to have to
keep checking that now.
353
00:20:00,137 --> 00:20:01,551
We don't want that
tank to fall off.
354
00:20:01,655 --> 00:20:03,827
It's full of diesel.
355
00:20:03,931 --> 00:20:05,758
Well, I'd have to
run in with one tank.
356
00:20:05,862 --> 00:20:07,862
And I don't have enough
fuel to make it out, well,
357
00:20:07,965 --> 00:20:10,689
then I'm stuck.
358
00:20:10,793 --> 00:20:13,724
NARRATOR: With more than
300 miles left to go
359
00:20:13,827 --> 00:20:18,310
and his truck held together
by a thin nylon strap,
360
00:20:18,413 --> 00:20:21,068
Rick rolls back
into the wilderness.
361
00:20:21,172 --> 00:20:23,517
[music playing]
362
00:20:28,448 --> 00:20:31,379
Might as well jury rig
it up, get the load in.
363
00:20:37,586 --> 00:20:38,758
This is what we're all about.
364
00:20:38,862 --> 00:20:40,931
You don't call the
Carlile mechanics.
365
00:20:41,034 --> 00:20:42,379
I've got a problem.
366
00:20:42,482 --> 00:20:44,517
You got to figure out a
way yourself and that's it.
367
00:20:49,310 --> 00:20:53,172
If it gets any worse, well,
I can't lose that fuel tank.
368
00:20:53,275 --> 00:20:56,137
But in the same hand, it's--
369
00:20:56,241 --> 00:21:01,000
why not live your life
on the edge a little bit?
370
00:21:01,103 --> 00:21:04,482
NARRATOR: If the 1,400
pound tank rattles loose,
371
00:21:04,620 --> 00:21:06,896
it could mean
disaster on the road.
372
00:21:10,551 --> 00:21:12,862
But Rick's willing
to take his chances.
373
00:21:12,965 --> 00:21:14,689
When I'm going this
way, I'm making money.
374
00:21:14,793 --> 00:21:16,034
When I'm going
that way, I'm not.
375
00:21:16,137 --> 00:21:21,034
So I got a freaking ratchet
strap holding my fuel tank on.
376
00:21:21,137 --> 00:21:23,413
But you can't predict what's
going to happen in the bush.
377
00:21:35,068 --> 00:21:36,172
NARRATOR: Back in Fairbanks--
378
00:21:39,517 --> 00:21:41,827
This wind really
sucks right now.
379
00:21:41,931 --> 00:21:44,965
NARRATOR: Maya's new
truck is ready to roll.
380
00:21:45,068 --> 00:21:51,827
So I got to find truck 1301.
381
00:21:51,931 --> 00:21:53,862
Oh, this is 1301.
382
00:21:53,965 --> 00:21:55,620
How cute.
383
00:21:55,724 --> 00:21:58,758
Look how small it is.
384
00:21:58,862 --> 00:22:01,793
Oh, wow.
385
00:22:01,896 --> 00:22:05,931
There is over a
million miles on here.
386
00:22:06,034 --> 00:22:10,793
Oh, I definitely got [inaudible]for this I can put in here.
387
00:22:10,931 --> 00:22:12,448
This is an old--
388
00:22:12,551 --> 00:22:15,206
look at the size of--
389
00:22:15,310 --> 00:22:18,068
I've never seen
anything that small.
390
00:22:18,172 --> 00:22:20,551
It's like half the size
of a twin mattress.
391
00:22:20,655 --> 00:22:22,620
I didn't even know that
was, like, possible.
392
00:22:22,724 --> 00:22:28,172
Well, this is definitely
not an 18, nor a 13 speed.
393
00:22:28,275 --> 00:22:32,137
It's a split 10 speed.
394
00:22:32,241 --> 00:22:33,827
But that's OK.
395
00:22:33,931 --> 00:22:36,586
You gotta start somewhere.
396
00:22:36,689 --> 00:22:38,758
I have to prove myself
before they put me
397
00:22:38,862 --> 00:22:41,931
in a $100,000 truck.
398
00:22:42,034 --> 00:22:45,793
This is going to be another
challenge, that's all.
399
00:22:45,931 --> 00:22:50,586
NARRATOR: While Maya settles
into her new ride, up north--
400
00:22:59,827 --> 00:23:02,793
I got to get this
[bleep] thing slowed down.
401
00:23:02,896 --> 00:23:05,379
NARRATOR: Dave is nearing
his abandoned trailer.
402
00:23:10,344 --> 00:23:12,793
DAVE REDMON: The wind out here
is blowing 50 miles an hour.
403
00:23:12,896 --> 00:23:14,206
It's just got the
road blowed shut.
404
00:23:16,931 --> 00:23:20,034
NARRATOR: But the Arctic
blizzard has traffic backed up
405
00:23:20,137 --> 00:23:22,931
for miles.
406
00:23:23,034 --> 00:23:25,551
Can't move ahead 20 [bleep]
minutes without something
407
00:23:25,655 --> 00:23:29,000
happening.
408
00:23:29,103 --> 00:23:31,413
NARRATOR: Five miles
ahead, the storm
409
00:23:31,517 --> 00:23:34,620
has wreaked havoc on the road.
410
00:23:34,724 --> 00:23:37,206
We've got 50, 60 knot gusts.
411
00:23:37,310 --> 00:23:38,310
Can't get out of here.
412
00:23:38,413 --> 00:23:40,827
You don't know where
the edge of the road is.
413
00:23:40,931 --> 00:23:44,172
NARRATOR: The DOT crew
struggles through the chaos.
414
00:23:44,275 --> 00:23:45,724
Doing what we can with it.
415
00:23:45,827 --> 00:23:50,724
You can't see 20 feet
in front of you today.
416
00:23:50,862 --> 00:23:53,724
NARRATOR: But the
damage is already done.
417
00:24:02,068 --> 00:24:04,448
Basically, we're trying to--
we got a couple of trucks up
418
00:24:04,551 --> 00:24:06,241
in the ditch.
419
00:24:06,344 --> 00:24:09,862
We've got about six or eight
foot high drifts in the road.
420
00:24:30,655 --> 00:24:35,034
WORKER: Mother Nature,
kicking our butt.
421
00:24:35,137 --> 00:24:39,655
NARRATOR: Five miles south,
Dave's frozen in his tracks.
422
00:24:43,137 --> 00:24:44,965
DAVE REDMON: A snow
plow just went by.
423
00:24:45,068 --> 00:24:48,206
Now he's got to drive 20
miles back the other way
424
00:24:48,310 --> 00:24:52,206
to get the snow blower
and drive up here.
425
00:24:52,310 --> 00:24:55,344
That'll take two hours, just
for him to get back here.
426
00:24:55,448 --> 00:24:58,103
Problem after problem
after problem.
427
00:24:58,241 --> 00:25:01,655
NARRATOR: As the storm
rages on, Dave settles in
428
00:25:01,758 --> 00:25:03,965
for a long, cold wait.
429
00:25:04,068 --> 00:25:06,413
DAVE REDMON: We're an
hour away from shelter.
430
00:25:06,517 --> 00:25:09,793
We're going to die
slow, cold and alone.
431
00:25:09,896 --> 00:25:11,620
I wish I was back in
Alabama right now.
432
00:25:17,758 --> 00:25:20,413
NARRATOR: Halfway
up the haul road--
433
00:25:20,517 --> 00:25:24,034
Can you see anything at all?
434
00:25:24,137 --> 00:25:27,517
NARRATOR: Lisa Kelly fightsthrough the heart of the storm.
435
00:25:27,620 --> 00:25:30,344
These delineators ain't
exactly reflecting right now
436
00:25:30,448 --> 00:25:33,000
with all the snow
built up on them.
437
00:25:33,137 --> 00:25:34,103
There is no color.
438
00:25:34,206 --> 00:25:35,000
They're just white.
439
00:25:40,862 --> 00:25:42,206
Whoa.
440
00:25:42,310 --> 00:25:45,482
When it's so bad that I can't
see the road, I just don't--
441
00:25:45,586 --> 00:25:47,862
I just try to stay
right in the middle.
442
00:25:47,965 --> 00:25:53,275
I don't want to try to figure
out where the edges are.
443
00:25:53,379 --> 00:25:55,827
I don't know what's coming upthe hill because I can't really
444
00:25:55,931 --> 00:25:57,827
see.
445
00:25:57,931 --> 00:25:59,827
[music playing]
446
00:26:09,896 --> 00:26:12,275
Whoa.
447
00:26:12,379 --> 00:26:17,034
NARRATOR: While Lisa pushes
on, back in Fairbanks,
448
00:26:17,137 --> 00:26:20,034
the blinding snowstorm
has stopped traffic,
449
00:26:20,137 --> 00:26:24,206
giving Maya chance to
gear up her new truck.
450
00:26:24,310 --> 00:26:26,862
I'm looking for
a bad ass knife.
451
00:26:26,965 --> 00:26:28,241
OK.
452
00:26:28,344 --> 00:26:31,241
I don't leave my house withouta knife or a can of mace in New
453
00:26:31,344 --> 00:26:32,068
York.
454
00:26:32,172 --> 00:26:34,172
So it's no different up here.
455
00:26:34,275 --> 00:26:36,000
And if somebody ever
tried to grab me,
456
00:26:36,103 --> 00:26:37,000
they're getting kicked.
457
00:26:37,103 --> 00:26:38,758
They're getting sprayed.
458
00:26:38,896 --> 00:26:40,724
And they're getting stabbed.
459
00:26:40,827 --> 00:26:43,827
I need something that's
really sharp, in case I have
460
00:26:43,931 --> 00:26:45,620
to stab a bear or something.
461
00:26:45,724 --> 00:26:46,965
I don't know.
462
00:26:47,068 --> 00:26:48,724
This is a [inaudible].
463
00:26:48,827 --> 00:26:49,758
It's spring assist.
464
00:26:49,862 --> 00:26:52,206
You've got the
combination blade.
465
00:26:52,310 --> 00:26:53,000
MAYA SIEBER: Oh.
466
00:26:53,103 --> 00:26:55,482
I like that.
467
00:26:55,586 --> 00:26:56,275
Yeah.
468
00:26:56,379 --> 00:26:58,068
I like that.
469
00:26:58,172 --> 00:26:58,896
OK.
470
00:26:59,000 --> 00:26:59,689
Yeah.
471
00:26:59,793 --> 00:27:00,965
I'll take this one.
472
00:27:01,068 --> 00:27:04,137
Gonna need one of
those to skin a moose.
473
00:27:04,241 --> 00:27:06,448
I protect myself with a
knife and some pepper spray,
474
00:27:06,551 --> 00:27:08,000
and a huge attitude.
475
00:27:13,827 --> 00:27:16,344
NARRATOR: 300
miles up the road--
476
00:27:16,448 --> 00:27:18,034
Freezing our [bleep] ass off.
477
00:27:21,448 --> 00:27:25,310
NARRATOR: After four,
cold, miserable hours,
478
00:27:25,413 --> 00:27:31,000
the DOT has cleared a path fora traffic to keep moving north.
479
00:27:31,103 --> 00:27:33,517
DAVE REDMON: And we got this
big, gigantic snow blower
480
00:27:33,620 --> 00:27:36,827
up here, clearing
the road for us,
481
00:27:36,931 --> 00:27:39,413
basically just to make us
a path to get us through.
482
00:27:53,482 --> 00:27:56,689
We're just creeping
along in first gear.
483
00:27:56,793 --> 00:27:58,655
Gotta keep going forward.
484
00:28:06,586 --> 00:28:08,862
It's just not a good idea to
drive if you don't have to.
485
00:28:08,965 --> 00:28:11,689
It's better to sit
and wait it out.
486
00:28:11,793 --> 00:28:13,448
We're stuck in the
middle of it right now.
487
00:28:21,103 --> 00:28:23,206
Now we've got zero [bleep]
visibility right here.
488
00:28:26,344 --> 00:28:28,241
Everything is just blowing
right in front of me.
489
00:28:33,758 --> 00:28:36,896
What in the hell have I
gotten myself into now?
490
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,379
You know, we went and made
a stupid [bleep] mistake,
491
00:28:40,482 --> 00:28:43,413
came down here to get in it.
492
00:28:43,517 --> 00:28:44,931
We shouldn't have.
493
00:28:45,034 --> 00:28:49,448
We should have turned around
when we had the chance.
494
00:28:49,551 --> 00:28:52,724
We're absolutely
in zero visibility.
495
00:28:56,275 --> 00:29:02,137
NARRATOR: Finally,
through the whiteout--
496
00:29:02,241 --> 00:29:03,241
DAVE REDMON: Yeah, baby.
497
00:29:03,344 --> 00:29:05,172
NARRATOR: Dave
spots his pipe load.
498
00:29:13,586 --> 00:29:16,655
Finally made it to
this load of pipe.
499
00:29:16,758 --> 00:29:18,000
Geeze.
500
00:29:18,103 --> 00:29:20,413
I thought we'd never get this
damn thing picked back up.
501
00:29:20,517 --> 00:29:22,758
We won't play around here much.
502
00:29:22,862 --> 00:29:24,655
We gotta get our asses a-movin'.
503
00:29:24,758 --> 00:29:27,068
[music playing]
504
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:36,448
NARRATOR: With his
load recovered,
505
00:29:36,551 --> 00:29:38,413
Dave heads back into the storm.
506
00:29:41,896 --> 00:29:43,586
Gotta focus.
507
00:29:43,689 --> 00:29:45,655
Got to focus.
508
00:29:45,758 --> 00:29:48,965
NARRATOR: And blindly steers
his rig the final miles
509
00:29:49,068 --> 00:29:49,758
to Prudhoe Bay.
510
00:29:53,448 --> 00:29:58,620
I'm not going to
[bleep] this up.
511
00:29:58,724 --> 00:30:03,103
NARRATOR: After
two, long cold days,
512
00:30:03,241 --> 00:30:07,241
Dave Redmon finishes his job.
513
00:30:07,344 --> 00:30:09,931
Oh, yeah, I made it, finally.
514
00:30:10,034 --> 00:30:12,517
I'll drop this trailer,
turn in my paperwork.
515
00:30:16,275 --> 00:30:17,827
But we got here.
516
00:30:17,931 --> 00:30:19,000
And that's all that matters.
517
00:30:26,310 --> 00:30:29,620
[music playing]
518
00:30:29,724 --> 00:30:32,137
NARRATOR: 150 miles
northeast of Winnipeg--
519
00:30:37,689 --> 00:30:39,517
It's slicker than
snot on a chicken's lip
520
00:30:39,620 --> 00:30:41,413
around these corners, isn't it?
521
00:30:41,517 --> 00:30:42,862
RADIO: Right.
522
00:30:42,965 --> 00:30:49,172
NARRATOR: As Hugh leads
the way, Rick lags behind,
523
00:30:49,275 --> 00:30:53,896
nursing his loose fuel tank
over the relentless bumps.
524
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:58,172
Got a wounded soldier
in my truck here, so.
525
00:30:58,275 --> 00:31:01,310
Got the tank strapped up, but Ican't really give her too much.
526
00:31:05,068 --> 00:31:07,000
You're going five rounds
with Mike Tyson every time
527
00:31:07,137 --> 00:31:08,379
you roll in here.
528
00:31:12,965 --> 00:31:15,965
NARRATOR: But 10 miles ahead--
529
00:31:16,068 --> 00:31:17,724
HUGH ROWLAND: Took
the wrong turn here.
530
00:31:21,275 --> 00:31:23,379
Looks like we're not the
only ones that did this.
531
00:31:30,896 --> 00:31:32,448
Is there no road out there?
532
00:31:32,551 --> 00:31:34,000
I mean, what's our
bearing this way?
533
00:31:34,103 --> 00:31:36,827
Is that the northwest?
534
00:31:36,931 --> 00:31:38,137
Well, that's east.
535
00:31:38,241 --> 00:31:39,862
That's east.
536
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:40,689
North, west.
537
00:31:43,586 --> 00:31:46,034
HUGH ROWLAND: Well, it's got tobe back over there, somewhere,
538
00:31:46,137 --> 00:31:47,000
but I don't even see.
539
00:31:47,103 --> 00:31:48,034
I don't see any marker.
540
00:31:48,137 --> 00:31:50,344
Nothing.
541
00:31:50,448 --> 00:31:52,517
And this road doesn't
even go anywhere, does it?
542
00:31:52,620 --> 00:31:53,827
We're at the end of it.
- Right.
543
00:31:53,931 --> 00:31:55,758
Well, we'll have to
turn around, regardless.
544
00:31:55,862 --> 00:31:57,068
This ain't it.
So.
545
00:31:57,172 --> 00:32:00,137
NARRATOR: The road they thoughtwould lead to Muskrat Dam
546
00:32:00,241 --> 00:32:01,827
has hit a dead end.
547
00:32:01,931 --> 00:32:03,413
We're in the wrong place.
548
00:32:03,517 --> 00:32:05,689
This isn't it.
549
00:32:05,793 --> 00:32:07,862
NARRATOR: Lost in
no man's land--
550
00:32:07,965 --> 00:32:09,448
All we know is
that we were supposed
551
00:32:09,551 --> 00:32:10,793
to come to the end of the road.
552
00:32:10,896 --> 00:32:13,310
And we're supposed to be on
the winter roads after that.
553
00:32:13,448 --> 00:32:17,448
But we went too far.
554
00:32:17,551 --> 00:32:20,448
NARRATOR: Hugh heads back
to break the news to Rick.
555
00:32:25,413 --> 00:32:26,103
We're lost.
556
00:32:30,310 --> 00:32:31,689
Listen.
557
00:32:31,793 --> 00:32:33,758
There's room to turn
around down there,
558
00:32:33,862 --> 00:32:35,517
so just turn around and--
559
00:32:35,620 --> 00:32:37,379
there's a road right past here.
560
00:32:37,482 --> 00:32:38,724
The sun was in everybody's eyes.
561
00:32:38,827 --> 00:32:42,172
We drove right into the lake.
562
00:32:42,275 --> 00:32:45,206
I'll try not to
get my feet wet.
563
00:32:45,310 --> 00:32:47,689
[music playing]
564
00:32:53,724 --> 00:32:55,137
This is a nasty
little [bleep]..
565
00:32:55,241 --> 00:32:57,551
This was about two hours.
566
00:32:57,655 --> 00:32:59,655
[inaudible],, so that's
going to be four hours
567
00:32:59,758 --> 00:33:01,896
we're losing today
alone there, just
568
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,655
with this little wrong turn.
569
00:33:04,758 --> 00:33:07,000
[music playing]
570
00:33:09,965 --> 00:33:11,344
NARRATOR: 140 miles west--
571
00:33:14,275 --> 00:33:19,000
Alex is loaded up, hauling apickup truck south to Winnipeg.
572
00:33:19,103 --> 00:33:20,758
These winter roads,
ice roads, yeah, they
573
00:33:20,896 --> 00:33:22,241
present lots of challenges.
574
00:33:22,344 --> 00:33:26,103
They're definitely
not a normal road.
575
00:33:26,206 --> 00:33:30,793
Whether it's weather,
distance, lack of services.
576
00:33:30,896 --> 00:33:33,000
Potential for accidents.
577
00:33:33,103 --> 00:33:38,172
NARRATOR: But suddenly, there'strouble on the road ahead.
578
00:33:38,275 --> 00:33:40,655
[music playing]
579
00:33:58,517 --> 00:34:01,000
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: The
wheel fell off, or what?
580
00:34:01,103 --> 00:34:01,793
Hello.
581
00:34:01,896 --> 00:34:03,000
DRIVER: Hello.
582
00:34:03,103 --> 00:34:04,482
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: You have
trouble with your wheel?
583
00:34:04,586 --> 00:34:05,448
DRIVER: Yeah.
584
00:34:05,551 --> 00:34:06,172
ALEX DEBOGORSKI:
The strut came off.
585
00:34:06,275 --> 00:34:07,482
DRIVER: Yeah.
586
00:34:07,586 --> 00:34:09,172
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: Looks like
that's going to be going back
587
00:34:09,275 --> 00:34:10,379
in there very soon, eh?
588
00:34:10,482 --> 00:34:11,482
Yeah.
589
00:34:11,586 --> 00:34:13,379
It's pulled the bolt
right out of the top.
590
00:34:13,482 --> 00:34:15,275
I can't see you
putting that back in.
591
00:34:15,379 --> 00:34:16,551
DRIVER: Yeah.
592
00:34:16,655 --> 00:34:18,689
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: So all those
parts are probably good,
593
00:34:18,793 --> 00:34:22,551
but how do you get
that back in there?
594
00:34:22,655 --> 00:34:23,448
Well, you want a ride?
595
00:34:23,551 --> 00:34:24,689
I'll give you a ride.
596
00:34:24,793 --> 00:34:26,724
DRIVER: Sure.
597
00:34:26,827 --> 00:34:29,068
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: We're just
going to leave the truck here
598
00:34:29,206 --> 00:34:31,379
and give these people a ride.
599
00:34:31,482 --> 00:34:34,344
And hopefully they
can find a tow truck.
600
00:34:34,448 --> 00:34:35,137
Come and get it.
601
00:34:41,896 --> 00:34:42,689
OK.
602
00:34:42,793 --> 00:34:43,758
Is everybody in here?
603
00:34:43,862 --> 00:34:44,862
Everybody's happy?
604
00:34:44,965 --> 00:34:47,413
Or as happy as we can be
under the circumstance?
605
00:34:50,620 --> 00:34:55,448
NARRATOR: Now Alex's payload isone pickup truck and a family
606
00:34:55,551 --> 00:34:56,965
of four.
607
00:34:57,068 --> 00:34:59,275
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: You pinched
your finger on that spring?
608
00:34:59,379 --> 00:35:00,862
On the rim.
609
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,689
And I was kind of--
it went like this.
610
00:35:02,793 --> 00:35:04,000
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: Yeah.
611
00:35:04,103 --> 00:35:07,034
And it went along on that
[inaudible] and cut when it
612
00:35:07,137 --> 00:35:08,137
turned.
613
00:35:08,241 --> 00:35:09,482
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: And
it grabbed your finger.
614
00:35:09,586 --> 00:35:10,896
Yeah.
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: Oh, yeah.
615
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:12,034
Well, did you bring the axe?
616
00:35:12,137 --> 00:35:13,448
We're going to
have to cut it off.
617
00:35:13,551 --> 00:35:14,724
[laughter]
618
00:35:14,827 --> 00:35:16,586
Haha, no.
619
00:35:16,689 --> 00:35:17,965
ALEX DEBOGORSKI: Just kidding.
620
00:35:18,068 --> 00:35:20,275
We still need to find a girl
who's going to have a baby,
621
00:35:20,379 --> 00:35:22,827
so I can deliver a
baby on this truck.
622
00:35:22,931 --> 00:35:24,068
[laughter]
623
00:35:29,517 --> 00:35:31,068
NARRATOR: On the north
slope of Alaska--
624
00:35:36,068 --> 00:35:38,413
Lisa is still
battling the blizzard.
625
00:35:42,689 --> 00:35:43,827
LISA KELLY: It's just gusting.
626
00:36:42,068 --> 00:36:42,758
Yay.
627
00:36:48,862 --> 00:36:51,241
I do believe there is
a light [inaudible]..
628
00:36:55,862 --> 00:37:00,275
NARRATOR: Finally, she pulls her10 ton trailer into the yard.
629
00:37:00,379 --> 00:37:03,000
Two days battling
a monster storm
630
00:37:03,103 --> 00:37:06,620
has reminded Lisa that
being an ice road trucker
631
00:37:06,724 --> 00:37:10,000
is about more than just
the size of your load.
632
00:37:10,103 --> 00:37:13,517
In the end, I have
to get the job done.
633
00:37:13,620 --> 00:37:15,965
And no matter what it is
they want me to drive,
634
00:37:16,103 --> 00:37:17,034
that's my job.
635
00:37:17,137 --> 00:37:19,896
Although I prefer to
drive some other thing,
636
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:24,206
I still need to shut up and takethe stuff I don't want to take.
637
00:37:24,310 --> 00:37:26,137
Because it's my job.
638
00:37:29,137 --> 00:37:31,000
[music playing]
639
00:37:31,103 --> 00:37:33,896
NARRATOR: Back in Canada--
640
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,586
I guess $16 a
month wasn't enough.
641
00:37:37,689 --> 00:37:40,724
NARRATOR: Alex hauls his
load and his passengers
642
00:37:40,827 --> 00:37:43,000
safely into town.
643
00:37:43,103 --> 00:37:43,827
OK.
644
00:37:43,931 --> 00:37:44,862
Thank you, sweetheart.
645
00:37:44,965 --> 00:37:45,655
There's no problem.
646
00:37:45,758 --> 00:37:48,034
Oh, don't squeeze.
647
00:37:48,137 --> 00:37:48,862
Hey.
648
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:49,689
No problem.
649
00:37:49,793 --> 00:37:51,103
God bless you guys.
650
00:37:51,206 --> 00:37:51,931
All the best.
651
00:37:52,034 --> 00:37:52,724
Be good.
652
00:38:02,206 --> 00:38:04,379
I'm on my merry way now.
653
00:38:04,482 --> 00:38:06,172
You never know what's
going to happen next.
654
00:38:06,275 --> 00:38:08,000
I'm waiting for the
flying saucers to come.
655
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,137
NARRATOR: Completing
this run puts Alex
656
00:38:15,241 --> 00:38:17,241
ahead of his Canadian rivals.
657
00:38:17,344 --> 00:38:23,551
While on the Dalton, Dave
is hot on Lisa's heels.
658
00:38:23,689 --> 00:38:29,137
As day breaks, Hugh and
Rick get back on the road.
659
00:38:34,586 --> 00:38:37,931
But a broken fuel tank
and one wrong turn
660
00:38:38,034 --> 00:38:40,931
have them half a
day behind schedule.
661
00:38:41,034 --> 00:38:45,034
We're headed for Muskrat
Dam and we [bleep] up.
662
00:38:45,137 --> 00:38:47,310
Apparently, we're not
very good map readers.
663
00:38:47,413 --> 00:38:50,655
NARRATOR: Already on the outs
with one trucking company,
664
00:38:50,758 --> 00:38:56,068
they can't afford to deliver
late and burn another bridge.
665
00:38:56,206 --> 00:38:56,931
That's OK.
666
00:38:57,034 --> 00:38:57,724
We'll get her back.
667
00:39:02,344 --> 00:39:06,689
Just heading up to our
first ice crossing here.
668
00:39:06,793 --> 00:39:10,448
NARRATOR: Just
ahead, Round Lake,
669
00:39:10,551 --> 00:39:14,862
seven miles across,
and just inches of ice
670
00:39:14,965 --> 00:39:16,206
between their load--
671
00:39:20,689 --> 00:39:25,931
and a 150 foot
drop to the bottom.
672
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,241
HUGH ROWLAND: Regardless
how much time we make up
673
00:39:32,344 --> 00:39:34,965
on high ground, we still got
to do the lake crossings.
674
00:39:35,068 --> 00:39:37,379
You can't speed on the lake.
675
00:39:37,482 --> 00:39:40,275
Somebody will die.
676
00:39:40,379 --> 00:39:43,758
NARRATOR: With eight miles of
frozen lake in front of them,
677
00:39:43,862 --> 00:39:46,655
Hugh and Rick will have
to rein in their speed.
678
00:39:55,379 --> 00:40:01,206
The ice is only four feet thick,but the lake is 100 feet deep.
679
00:40:01,310 --> 00:40:03,413
Yeah, our first big
lake for this trip here.
680
00:40:07,862 --> 00:40:09,655
This one, they
say takes an hour.
681
00:40:14,551 --> 00:40:21,379
We got to slow down
to 10 here just to--
682
00:40:21,482 --> 00:40:24,482
it's thin ice.
683
00:40:24,586 --> 00:40:26,586
We're right up to
snuff for weight, too.
684
00:40:32,724 --> 00:40:33,827
We've got to be careful here.
685
00:40:36,482 --> 00:40:38,793
Otherwise, one of us is going
to [bleep] drown here today.
686
00:40:44,068 --> 00:40:46,172
It's deep enough that I
don't want to end up in it.
687
00:40:46,275 --> 00:40:47,000
That's all I know.
688
00:40:56,724 --> 00:40:59,068
Islands.
689
00:40:59,172 --> 00:41:02,827
That's an island, I guess,
that we just drove by.
690
00:41:02,931 --> 00:41:04,310
Driving by an island sounds fun.
691
00:41:04,413 --> 00:41:06,344
I guess for people that
don't drive on ice roads,
692
00:41:06,448 --> 00:41:08,000
it sounds fun.
693
00:41:08,103 --> 00:41:10,896
It's when you fall asleep
and run into an island--
694
00:41:11,034 --> 00:41:14,344
that's when [bleep] gets bad.
695
00:41:14,448 --> 00:41:16,793
[music playing]
696
00:41:32,137 --> 00:41:34,896
We're just coming off
a round right now.
697
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:38,344
NARRATOR: Just across the lake--
698
00:41:38,448 --> 00:41:40,000
they stop to check the map.
699
00:41:41,965 --> 00:41:43,896
- Where are we grouping?
- We're regrouping here.
700
00:41:44,034 --> 00:41:46,241
And I'm looking at this.
And I don't understand it, so.
701
00:41:46,344 --> 00:41:47,586
Well, this is what we've done.
702
00:41:47,689 --> 00:41:48,482
We've done the 27.
703
00:41:48,586 --> 00:41:49,586
And then we--
704
00:41:49,689 --> 00:41:51,655
NARRATOR: And they don't
like what they see.
705
00:41:51,758 --> 00:41:53,448
So we've got to
[bleep] double back 12.
706
00:41:53,551 --> 00:41:54,551
OK.
707
00:41:54,655 --> 00:41:56,275
See, we're going to
the town of Round Lake.
708
00:41:56,379 --> 00:41:57,379
Oh.
709
00:41:57,482 --> 00:41:58,310
I say we just--
710
00:41:58,413 --> 00:41:59,103
hey, I got an idea.
711
00:41:59,206 --> 00:42:00,172
Let's just drive around.
712
00:42:03,793 --> 00:42:06,034
NARRATOR: The road
to Muskrat Dam runs
713
00:42:06,137 --> 00:42:11,137
through the town of Round Lake,not across the lake itself.
714
00:42:11,241 --> 00:42:13,172
HUGH ROWLAND: So this
is twice in two days
715
00:42:13,275 --> 00:42:14,965
we've ended up in
the wrong road.
716
00:42:17,965 --> 00:42:19,758
And we've [bleep] up again.
717
00:42:19,862 --> 00:42:20,551
The wrong way.
718
00:42:23,517 --> 00:42:26,620
NARRATOR: Now they'll have
to haul their 50,000 pound
719
00:42:26,724 --> 00:42:28,931
loads back over thin ice.
720
00:42:32,896 --> 00:42:36,034
When you're on an ice road,
anything can happen, right?
721
00:42:36,137 --> 00:42:37,206
Anything can [bleep] happen.
722
00:42:47,448 --> 00:42:48,482
[music playing]
723
00:42:48,586 --> 00:42:50,344
NARRATOR: On the next
"Ice Road Truckers"--
724
00:42:50,482 --> 00:42:51,620
LISA KELLY: Oh my gosh.
725
00:42:51,724 --> 00:42:54,137
NARRATOR: Cabin
fever strikes Lisa.
726
00:42:54,241 --> 00:42:55,655
They don't have
food in this camp.
727
00:42:55,758 --> 00:43:00,241
And so I've been living
off the food in this truck.
728
00:43:00,344 --> 00:43:01,379
NARRATOR: Dave gets angry.
729
00:43:01,482 --> 00:43:04,068
I'm not going to sit
here and kiss your ass.
730
00:43:04,172 --> 00:43:06,931
NARRATOR: And Rick
finally snaps.
731
00:43:07,034 --> 00:43:10,620
[bleep] my truck like that
again, I'll [bleep] kill you.
