NARRATOR:
WARMING TEMPERATURES...

NOW THAT YOU'RE OFF THE ICE,

NOW I'LL TELL YOU THAT I'VE SEEN
ALL KINDS OF PRESSURE CRACKS.

ALL YOU GUYS DO IS COME HERE

NARRATOR:
THROUGHOUT CANADA,
WINTER IS SLIPPING AWAY,

SPRING IS SOON APPROACHING.

AND AS THE TEMPERATURES
HEAT UP,

THE WINTER ROADS MELT
AND DISAPPEAR.

ONCE IT THAWS OUT,
THE ROAD'S GONE,

SO IT'S BACK TO SWAMP.

NARRATOR:
WITH ONLY A FEW DAYS LEFT
TO DELIVER LOADS,

THE RACE IS ON
FOR THE ICE ROAD TRUCKERS.

SEASON'S COMING TO AN END,

THE ROADS ARE STARTING
TO CLOSE DOWN,

THEY'RE GETTING PRETTY
DANGEROUS.

WE HAVE TO GET THESE LOADS
OUT NOW.

NARRATOR:
BUT AT POLAR HEADQUARTERS...

GOING IN HERE TO SEE NOW
WHETHER I'M GOING TO GET THE AXE

OR WHETHER I'M GOING BACK
TO WORK.

NARRATOR:
ONE DRIVER MIGHT HAVE ALREADY
REACHED THE END OF THE ROAD.

ART:
I'M RUNNING OUT OF FUEL,
I'M RUNNING,

I'M COMPLETELY OUT OF
[BLEEP] PATIENCE.

NARRATOR:
ART BURKE'S SEASON'S BEEN
FILLED WITH BUMPS...

[LOUD CLANG]
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?

NARRATOR:
AND BRUISES.

THEY SHUT ME DOWN
FOR THREE [BLEEP] DAYS.

NARRATOR:
AND ON HIS LAST TRIP,
A TOTALLED RIG.

ART:
HOLD ON.

[BLEEP]

NARRATOR: MAY HAVE BEEN HIS FINAL STRIKE.

AND THIS WENT INTO THIS,
RIGHT?

HE GETS THE D.O.T. TICKETS,
GROUNDED FOR THREE DAYS,

THEN HE SMASHES THE TRUCK.

HOLY [BLEEP]!

MARK:
SOME REALLY BAD MISTAKES.

[KNOCKING]

MARK:
COME ON IN.

NARRATOR:
TODAY, HIS FATE RESTS
IN THE BOSS' HANDS.

I GOT A BANGED UP TRUCK.

BASICALLY, ART, YOU KNOW IT
KIND OF BOILS DOWN TO,

YOU KNOW, WE'RE END
OF THE SEASON HERE,

I GOT A LOT OF LOADS
I GOTTA GET OUT.

THEY COULD SHUT THESE ROADS
DOWN ON US

IN A MATTER OF DAYS HERE.

I NEED YOU OUT THERE,
I NEED YOU RUNNIN' HARD.

RIGHT.

WE'RE SENDING YOU WAY OUT
THIS TIME THOUGH, TOO.

OKAY.

OKAY, I'M GOING TO SEND YOU WAY
UP NORTH, UP TO BROCHET.

THIS ROAD TO BROCHET'S GOT
SOME CHALLENGES IN IT,

WE GOT A COUPLE HILLS TOWARDS
THE END THERE

THAT ARE A LITTLE BIT DICEY.

FROM WHAT I HEAR, THAT ROAD CAN
CHANGE THIS TIME OF YEAR,

FROM THE MINUTE YOU GO IN,
THE MINUTE YOU GO OUT

IT CAN BE A COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT ROAD.

SO, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
AN ESCORT IN FOR YOU.

JOEY BARNES, HE KNOWS THAT ROAD
LIKE THE BACK OF HIS HAND.

THAT'S HIS BACK YARD,
THAT'S HIS KINGDOM,

AS HE CALLS IT, SO UH...

WE'RE GONNA SEND YOU
UP THERE WITH HIM.

LET'S GET IT DONE.

ART: OKAY, BUDDY.
MARK: ALL RIGHT?

ART: ALL RIGHT, BOY.
MARK: SEE YOU SOON.

ART:
SEE YOU WHEN I GET BACK.

NARRATOR:
THE 800 MILE TRAIL TO BROCHET

IS ONE OF THE NORTHERN MOST
DESTINATIONS IN MANITOBA.

AND ON THE WAY, ART WILL
MEET UP WITH A LOCAL

AT REMOTE LYNN LAKE TO GUIDE
HIM THE LAST BRUTAL STRETCH.

I'M GOING UP HERE
TO MEET THIS GUY,

AND I'M FOLLOWING HIM INTO
THE [BLEEP] WOODS.

WHAT THE [BLEEP] THE SENSE
OF THAT?

I WANT TO GET AS MANY TRIPS
IN AS I CAN.

I'M NOT UP HERE TO GO [BLEEP]
VISITING, FOR [BLEEP] SAKE.

NARRATOR:
ART'S GETTING ANOTHER SHOT,

BUT THE BOSS HAS PUT HIM
ON A SHORT LEASH.

[BLEEP] I MIGHT AS WELL
HAVE BEEN FIRED!

NARRATOR:
BUT 200 MILES TO THE EAST,

ON THE ROAD TO BIG TROUT LAKE,

TWO OTHER DRIVERS HAVE
ALREADY TEAMED UP.

DARRELL:
COOL, RIGHT ON, RENO,
ANOTHER LOAD. ANOTHER LOAD.

WE NEED TO GET AS MANY
AS WE CAN.

WITH TWO OF US DRIVING
WE DON'T HAVE TO STOP,

TAKE TURNS SLEEPING.

NARRATOR:
FATHER AND SON DUO,
DARRELL AND RENO WARD,

ARE ON ANOTHER RUN FOR THEIR
THRIVING NEW COMPANY.

YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU'RE
GONNA MEET SOMETHING

COMIN' AROUND THESE CORNERS,
THOUGH.

RENO:
I KNOW, I'M LOOKING AHEAD.

I KNOW,
I'M JUST REMINDIN' YA.

[SKIDS, CRASH]

YOU'RE DOWN THERE WITH
THE [BLEEP] RHUBARB.

YEAH, SAVED IT THOUGH, EH?

DARRELL:
YEAH.

NARRATOR:
THE TEAM'S HAULING A LOAD
OF CONSTRUCTION SUPPLIES

AND A WORK TRUCK
TO THE REMOTE VILLAGE.

DARRELL:
YEAH, SHE'S GETTIN' SLICK,
RENO.

OUT HERE IN THE MIDDLE
OF MARCH,

AND THE TEMPERATURE STARTS
RUNNING UP

AND THEY START CLOSING-

SUN'S SHINING DOWN, THERE
AIN'T A CLOUD IN THE SKY.

NARRATOR:
BUT THE 630 MILE TRAIL

IS GETTING SLICK UNDER
THE HOT SUN,

AND PROVING A ROUGH TRIP
FOR THE ROOKIE.

DARRELL:
I MEAN, THIS ONE RIGHT HERE,
THIS HERE,

ALL SLOPED CORNERS
LIKE THIS HERE.

[BLEEP]

[TRUCK SKIDS, CRASH]

DARRELL: SEE, LIKE THAT.
RENO: OH YEAH, SHE'S SLICK.

DARRELL:
NEED THAT SUN TO GO AWAY.

YOU'VE JUST GOT TO TAKE IT
A LOT EASIER.

NARRATOR:
WITH THE ROADS CRUMBLING
MORE EVERY DAY...

[BLEEP] RENO, I'M GOING TO HAVE
HEMORRHOIDS ON MY ASS

BY THE TIME WE'RE DONE HERE

IF YOU DON'T QUIT HITTING
THESE BUMPS.

NARRATOR:
THE TEAM IS PUSHING HARD

TO BANK AS MANY LOADS AS THEY
CAN BEFORE THE SEASON IS UP.

NOT MUCH TIME LEFT.

JUST GOT TO KEEP 'EM ROLLING.

[TRUCK RATTLES]
OH!

[BLEEP]

OH, [BLEEP]

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!

[CRASH]

I NEED A SISSY BAR IN HERE.

RENO:
YEAH, THAT NAME FITS.

WATCH THE [BLEEP] ROAD!

RENO:
OH MY GOD.

DARRELL:
YOU SCARE ME SOMETIMES.

RENO:
WELL, YOU KNOW, THE WAY
YOU REACT SCARES ME.

WELL, FIRST CAR YOU EVER
CRASHED YOU WERE

A YEAR AND A HALF OLD
AND YOU SMASHED MY [BLEEP]
PICK UP, UP.

'CAUSE YOU STARTED THE PICK UP,
PUT IT IN GEAR,

AND [BLEEP] DRIVE RIGHT IN TO
THE BACK OF MY CAR,

AND SHOVE MY [BLEEP] CAR RIGHT
INTO THE [BLEEP] SHOP DOOR.

I KNEW HOW TO MAKE IT GO.
I PAID ATTENTION, SEE.

I WAS LEARNING AT A YOUNG AGE.

YEAH, HOW TO WRECK.

HEY NO,
I PAID ATTENTION.

HOW MANY WRECKS
HAVE YOU HAD LIKE THAT?

ONE WHEN YOU WERE EIGHTEEN
MONTHS...

ONE WHEN YOU WERE ABOUT SEVEN.

WHAT ELSE OF MINE HAVE
YOU [BLEEP] UP? THE JEEP.

DARRELL:
THAT WAS THE LAST ONE.

NARRATOR:
THE TEAM PUSHES DEEPER INTO
THE ONTARIO WILDERNESS.

BUT SUDDENLY,
THEY'RE NOT ALONE.

YEAH, THEY ACT LIKE THEY'RE
THE ONLY ONES

WHO SHOULD DRIVE THIS ROAD.

YEAH, AND IF YOU'RE
ON THIS ROAD,

YOU'RE AT FAULT FOR WHATEVER.

NARRATOR: A CONVOY ALSO HEADED NORTHBOUND IS FIGHTING THE ROAD ROUGH TOO,

BUT THEY'RE NOT BLAMING WARMING TEMPERATURES

FOR THE BAD CONDITIONS.

I MEAN, I MEAN IT'S MY SECOND
TRIP. I WASN'T...

WE'RE TAKING IT EASY
GOING IN HERE.

RENO:
YEAH.

HOW FAST ARE YOU GOING, RENO?
TWENTY-SEVEN.

YEAH, THREE KILOMETRES BELOW
THE SPEED LIMIT. SO...

WELL, LET'S JUST TAKE IT EASY,

I DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH THEM. PULL UP AND HOLD UP.

STOP THERE FOR A SECOND.

JUST HOLD UP
AND LET THEM GET GOING.

BOTH OF YOU GO AROUND.

[TRUCK HONKS]

OH, THEY'RE GONNA STOP HERE,
RENO.

AND THEY'RE GONNA ACT
ALL PISSY,

I CAN SEE BY THE WAY
HE COME TO A SLIDING STOP.

THEY'RE GONNA GET OUT
AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE
A [BLEEP] ATTITUDE.

YEAH, WELL I'LL GET OUT
AND I'LL HAVE A LOT BIGGER ONE

BECAUSE I'M A LOT BIGGER
THAN THEM.

DARRELL:
JUST ROLL YOUR WINDOW DOWN.

RENO:
GOOD, HOW ARE YOU?

NO, I DON'T,
I'VE GOT THIS FAR.

RENO:
AM I?

WELL, I'D BITCH ABOUT IT TO
SOMEONE ELSE.

WE DROVE STRAIGHT IN HERE,

SO I'D BITCH ABOUT IT TO
SOMEONE ELSE BESIDES ME.

DARRELL:
WE DIDN'T MAKE NO MESS.

YOU STOPPED HERE, AND YOU
STARTED GIVING US [BLEEP].

MAN:
I ASKED YOU A SIMPLE QUESTION.

WE WEREN'T EVEN [BLEEP] MOVING.

MAN:
I ASKED YOU A SIMPLE QUESTION.

AND I SAID NO,
AND YOU BLAMED US ANYWAY.

HEY [BLEEP] YOU, GUYS.

ALL YOU GUYS DO IS COME HERE
AND GIVE US [BLEEP].

WE HAD ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEMS
ON THESE ROADS.

WE DIDN'T DO THAT. WE FOLLOWED
THAT [BLEEP] IN HERE,

AND I DO NOT KNOW
WHO IS IN FRONT OF US.

MAN:
ANOTHER FIFTEEN DAYS
OF WORK HERE.

DARRELL: I KNOW THAT.
MAN: DO YOU?

DARRELL: AND I'M HERE TOO.
MAN: DO YOU RESPECT IT?

DARRELL: YES, I DO.
MAN: IF THERE'S ANY MORE
[BLEEP] MARKS.

DARRELL:
I DON'T KNOW WHICH [BLEEP]
DIRECTION IT WAS GOING,

BUT WE SEEN IT ALSO.

I DO THE SAME [BLEEP] JOB
YOU GUYS DO,

EVERY [BLEEP] YEAR,
WHETHER IT'S HERE

OR WHETHER IT'S IN ALASKA.

MAN: IS THAT RIGHT, WELL...
DARRELL: YES I DO.

MAN:
GO BACK TO [BLEEP] ALASKA.

DARRELL:
NO, [BLEEP] YOU. WALK AWAY YOU

DARRELL:

AND WALK AWAY.

MAN: I WILL WALK AWAY!
DARRELL: [BLEEP] YOU!

[BLEEP] YOU,
YOU PIECE OF [BLEEP]!

MAN:
COME ON, MAKE THE FIRST
[BLEEP] HIT.

NARRATOR:
IN THE REMOTE ONTARIO
WILDERNESS...

YOU STOPPED HERE, AND YOU
STARTED GIVING US [BLEEP].

NARRATOR:
DARRELL AND RENO WARD,
FACE OFF AGAINST TWO TRUCKERS

ACCUSING RENO OF TEARING UP
THE ROAD.

MAN:
ANOTHER FIFTEEN DAYS
OF WORK HERE.

DARRELL: I KNOW THAT.
MAN: DO YOU?

DARRELL: AND I'M HERE, TOO.
MAN: DO YOU RESPECT IT?

DARRELL:

MAN:
I WILL WALK AWAY.

[BLEEP] YOU! [BLEEP] YOU,

COME ON, MAKE THE FIRST
[BLEEP] HIT!

DARRELL: YEAH, GO FOR IT.
MAN: YOU'RE LOOKING FOR
A CONFRONTATION.

GO FOR IT. HEY, YOU GUYS
WANT A CONFRONTATION?

YOU GUYS ARE THE ONES THAT
STOPPED AND BROUGHT IT ON!

COME ON!

YOU THINK YOU'RE A TOUGH
[BLEEP] OR WHAT?

COME ON, BOTH OF YOU [BLEEP]
I'LL TAKE ON BOTH OF YOU
[BLEEP].

IF YOU WANNA [BLEEP].

RENO:
WE STOPPED TO LET YOU GUYS
GO BY.

DARRELL:
WE STOPPED HERE
AND LET YOU GO BY.

[TRUCK ENGINE RUMBLES]

DARRELL:
AS A PARENT,
AS ALL PARENTS WOULD DO,

THEY PROTECT THEIR CHILDREN.

YOU KNOW, NO MATTER THAT RENO'S
BIGGER THAN I AM,

AND 20-YEARS-OLD,

AND I KNOW HE CAN TAKE CARE
OF HIMSELF,

I'M STILL NOT GOING TO PUT UP
WITH HIM GIVING HIM [BLEEP].

[BLEEP] YOU.

KEEP YOUR [BLEEP] MOUTH SHUT,
AND DRIVE ON.

[BLEEP] THOSE GUYS.
SERIOUSLY.

I DON'T KNOW WHO THE [BLEEP]
THEY THINK THEY ARE.

OLD SCHOOL, TAKE 'EM
TO THE [BLEEP] DIRT.

YOU GOT A PROBLEM,
LET'S GET IN THE [BLEEP] DIRT
AND LET'S DO IT.

YOU'VE GOT TO GET OVER IT, HUH.

THAT'S BULL[BLEEP].
[BLEEP] HIM.

WHY CAN'T YOU JUST GET OVER IT?

OKAY, HE'S A [BLEEP] IDIOT,
HE SAID SOME DUMB [BLEEP].

[BLEEP] RENO, [BLEEP] THEM.
[BLEEP] THEM.

THEY WANT TO [BLEEP] GO ROUNDS
WITH ME,

I'LL [BLEEP] GO ROUNDS
WITH THEM.

TO BE A PROFESSIONAL YOU GOTTA
TO BE ABLE TO WORK WITH
EVERYONE.

IN ANY, IN ANY INDUSTRY,
YOU'VE GOT TO BE ABLE-

DARRELL: RENO, I KNOW!
RENO: DON'T YELL AT ME.

NARRATOR:
AS THE TEAM FIGHTS THEIR WAY
FURTHER INTO ONTARIO...

310 MILES TO THE WEST...

KABOOM! OKAY.

NARRATOR:
ALEX DEBOGORSKI'S PICKING UP
A NEW HAUL.

ALEX:
I'M GONNA LOAD
SOME CONCRETE.

THEY GONNA TAKE 12
OF THOSE BAGS FROM OVER THERE,

PUT THEM ON THE TRAILER,

AND I'M ON MY WAY
TO ST. THERESA POINT.

NARRATORl
THE VETERAN'S LOOKING
TO KEEP VP

ON TOP OF A TIGHTENING
LOAD COUNT BATTLE.

ALEX:
3,000 POUNDS EACH, THAT'LL
BE 36,000 THOUSAND POUNDS.

NARRATOR:
BUT WITH THE 650 MILE TRAIL
QUICKLY DISSOLVING...

IT'S NO EASY TASK.

I GOT MY CEMENT LOADED,
I GOTTA TIE IT DOWN.

EVERYTHING'S GOOD, THE SUN'S
UP, AND I'M READY TO GO.

[CHUCKLES]

OKAY, WHAT'S WITH THE BEEPING?
COME ON, QUIT IT.

MY VOLT METER'S BEEN PLAYING
AROUND A LITTLE BIT THERE,

AT ABOUT THIRTEEN AND A HALF.

IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE SITTING
AT FOURTEEN.

OKAY, WHAT'S WITH THE BEEPING?
COME ON, QUIT IT.

NARRATOR:
BUT MELTING ROADS AREN'T ALEX'
ONLY CONCERN.

WELL, I HAD THE TRUCK
IN THE GARAGE UH,

THEY FIXED A BROKEN CABLE
BETWEEN TWO BANKS OF BATTERIES,

FIXED A COUPLE WIRES THAT WERE
MUNCHED IN THE BUMPER.

AS F AS I KNOW
I'VE GOT HEADLIGHTS

AND ALL MY ELECTRICAL.
EVERYTHING'S GOOD.

NARRATOR:
DESPITE A SHAKY ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM,

THE OLD PRO HAMMERS DOWN
AND HEADS FOR ST. THERESA.

I'M NOT REALLY COMFORTABLE WITH
THE ELECTRICS IN THIS TRUCK.

I MEAN, I JUST-THEY'LL GO
TILL THEY BLOW. SIMPLE.

NOT GONNA WORRY ABOUT IT.

♪♪♪

WE'RE OFF!

NARRATOR:
BUT 290 MILES TO THE NORTH,

THE COMPETITION'S ON THE MOVE.

TODD:
WE'VE GOT A HARD ROAD
TO TRAVEL.

IT'S VERY NARROW, WINDY,
DEEP RUTS, UNPLOUGHED.

NARRATOR:
TRUCKING HEAVYWEIGHTS
TODD DEWEY AND LISA KELLY,

ARE HAULING SCHOOL BUSES

OVER ONE OF CANADA'S
TOUGHEST TRAILS.

THE ROUGH 90 MILE STRETCH
TO UTIK LAKE,

A PRIVATE UNMAINTAINED ROAD
BUILT BY POLAR

FOR THEIR EXCLUSIVE CONTRACT.

YOU CAN TELL THE TEMPERATURES
ARE WARMING UP

JUST BECAUSE OF THE FACT
OF HOW MUCH IT KEEPS SNOWING.

LISA:
THIS IS PRETTY NARROW ROAD
UP HERE,

AND THE ROADS ARE MELTING AWAY.

TODD:
IT'S THE REALLY LAST HARD PUSH
OF THE SEASON.

THE ROADS ARE COMING
TO A CLOSE.

WE DEFINITELY WANT TO MAKE SURE

THAT WE GET THESE TWO SCHOOL
BUSES THERE SAFE FOR TEAM
POLAR.

HOLY [BLEEP]! HANG ON!

NARRATOR: TODAY, THE COMPANY'S SCRAMBLING TO GET THE FINAL LOADS
DELIVERED

AND COMPLETE THE CONTRACT
BEFORE THE TRAIL MELTS AWAY.

LISA:
IT'S SO BUMPY.

TODD:
WE'VE GOT A LONG WAYS TO GO, SO
WE NEED TO START THIS TOODLING.

LISA:
TEN-FOUR THERE,
GOOD BUDDY.

NARRATOR:
THE SNOW IS GETTING SLICKER
BY THE HOUR,

EVEN TURNING INTO RUNNING
WATER.

LISA:
AS FAR AS I UNDERSTAND,

THESE ARE THE LAST TWO LOADS
GOING INTO UTIK LAKE.

THESE ARE REALLY IMPORTANT.

IT'S GONNA BE A CHALLENGING DAY
BECAUSE IT'S DUSTY,

AND AS SOON AS IT SNOWS,
EVERYONE LOSES THEIR MINDS.

[TRUCK HONKS]

LISA:
NO FUEL OR LODGING AVAILABLE
BETWEEN DESTINATIONS.

NARRATOR:
NOW THE PAIR MUST BRAVE
THE TRAIL'S UNREGULATED
ICE CROSSING.

TODD:
GONNA BE ROLLING ACROSS
THE BIG LAKE CROSSING HERE.

THIS IS ACTUALLY KIND OF SCARY.

THIS ROAD ISN'T REALLY,
IT'S MAINTAINED

BUT NOT VERY WELL.

SO THE ICE IS REALLY COVERED
IN A LOT OF SNOW.

SO YOU CAN'T REALLY SEE
WHAT THE ICE IS DOING.

YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE
IT'S MOVING,

OR WHERE THE THICKER SPOTS ARE, OR WHERE THE BIGGER CRACKS ARE,

THAT YOU WANT TO TRY TO AVOID

BECAUSE IT'S ALL COVERED
IN FRESH SNOW,

SO IT ACTUALLY MAKES IT
A LITTLE BIT MORE...

IT JUST MAKES YOU A LITTLE BIT
MORE NERVOUS.

TODD:
OKAY, I GUESS WE'RE ABOUT
READY TO ROLL, LISA.

LISA:
THIS IS GONNA BE ROUGH.

HERE WE GO.

YOU GOT TO DO
WHAT YOU GOT TO DO UP HERE.

NARRATOR: ON THE UNREGULATED ICE CROSSING TO UTIK LAKE...

TODD:
HERE WE GO.

YOU GOT TO DO
WHAT YOU GOT TO DO UP HERE.

NARRATOR:
TODD DEWEY AND LISA KELLY,
ARE PRESSING THEIR LUCK.

[ICE CRACKING]

YOU CAN HEAR IT CRACKING.

SO WE ARE DEFINITELY ON ICE.

I'M COMING DOWN ON THE ICE.

NARRATOR:
IN WARMING TEMPERATURES,

THE ICE HAS ALREADY STARTED
MELTING,

AND MORE CRACKS
ARE FORMING QUICK

IN THE WEIGHT OF THE 26 TONNE
HAULS.

[ICE CRACKING]

TODD:
THIS LAST COUPLE TIMES
ON THE ICE

I WAS STARTING TO GET REAL
COMFORTABLE.

I'M WONDERING IF THAT'S
WHEN IT GETS YOU THOUGH.

OH, I HEAR YA.

TODD:
ONE RUN WHEN I GOT UP THERE,

THE CHIEF CAME UP TO ME
AND SAID,

HE JUST HAD LOST HIS BROTHER
LAST YEAR ON AN ICE CROSSING.

KIND OF BROUGHT ME BACK DOWN
TO REALITY A LITTLE BIT, BUT...

YEAH, THAT DEFINITELY PUTS
A PERSPECTIVE ON IT.

[ICE CRACKING]

WE'RE NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT
SOME ROOKIE UPUP THERE ON THE I,

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT SOMEBODY
WHO'S BEEN EXPERIENCED

AND LIVES THERE, AND DEALS WITH THIS EVERY YEAR,

AND KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING
TO GO THROUGH AND DIE.

YEAH, THAT'S PRETTY SCARY.

LISA:
MAKES YOU WONDER IF IT'S JUST
A MATTER OF TIME, YOU KNOW.

THE LONGER YOU'RE ON THE ROADS, IT UPS YOUR CHANCES.

TODD:
YEAH, KIND OF LIKE SOONER
OR LATER YOUR LUCK RUNS OUT.

YEAH, PRETTY MUCH.

I'M DONE TALKING ABOUT THIS.

SLOW GOING ON THE LAKES,

BUT THAT'S THE PART
THAT'S IMPORTANT.

IT'S NOT FORGETTING
AND GOING FASTER

THINKING YOU CAN PUSH IT
JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE.

LISA:
YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE, YET?

TODD:
I'M GETTING PRETTY CLOSE HERE,
JUST ABOUT COMING OFF THE ICE.

THAT SLIMY, NICE PACKED SNOW.

NARRATOR:
TODD'S OFF THE ICE.

TODD:
WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!

NARRATOR:
BUT HE'S LEFT DAMAGE BEHIND.

SO NOW THAT YOU'RE OFF THE ICE,

NOW I'LL TELL YOU THAT I'VE
SEEN ALL KINDS OF FRESH CRACKS.

UH-OH, WHAT?

LISA:
I DIDN'T WANT TO TELL YOU
WHEN YOU WERE ON THE ICE

ABOUT ALL THESE FRESH CRACKS
I'M SEEING BACK HERE,

SO I THOUGHT I'D WAIT UNTIL
YOU WERE OFF THE ICE.

I'M STILL ON THE ICE,
BY THE WAY.

♪♪♪

LISA:
ALL RIGHT,
OFF TO SHORE WE GO.

NARRATOR:
CLEAR OF THE CROSSING,

THE CONVOY PUSHES ON
THE LAST 160 MILES.

IT'S GONNA BE A LONG DAY.

IT'S TIME TO BUCKLE DOWN
AND GET THE JOB DONE.

NARRATOR:
200 MILES TO THE NORTHWEST
IN LYNN LAKE...

[DOG BARKING]

YEAH, WELL, THAT MARK TOLD ME
I HAD TO HOOK UP WITH YOU

'CAUSE YOU KNOW YOUR
AROUND THERE GOOD.

JOEY:
YEAH.

NARRATOR:
ART'S MET UP WITH HIS NEW
CONVOY PARTNER.

THIS THE RIG HERE,
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT?

JOEY:
YEAH. THAT'S THE SCREAMING
FORD.

THE '74 FORDS WERE VERY POPULAR IT'S LIKE A MODEL T,

SO ANOTHER TWENTY YEARS,

MAYBE THIS TRUCK WILL BE
A COLLECTOR'S ITEM
AT THE SMITHSONIAN.

NARRATOR:
ART'S CHAPERONE IS THE SELF
PROCLAIMED KING OF OBSOLETE.

JOEY:
I AM THE KING OF OBSOLETE,
AND THERE IS ONLY ONE,

AND THERE WILL BE NO OTHER.

NARRATOR:
A LOCAL TRUCKER,

WHO PRIDES HIMSELF ON HIS
VINTAGE EQUIPMENT...

AND HIS ABILITY TO GO WHERE
OTHER DRIVERS CAN'T.

JOEY:
BASICALLY I LIVE AT THE END
OF THE WORLD.

YOU HAVE TO BE VERY RESOURCEFUL
AT THE END OF THE WORLD

BECAUSE WE CAN'T RELY
ON EVERYBODY ELSE.

[TRUCK DOOR CLOSES]

WELL, THAT'S A GOOD SIGN,
IT STARTED.

I GOT A WHOLE [BLEEP] DIFFERENT
OPINION OF HIM.

HE'S A GOOD [BLEEP] THAT GUY.

THAT TURNED OUT ALL RIGHT.

THIS MORNING I DIDN'T WANT
TO GO THERE,

I WAS PISSED [BLEEP] OFF

BECAUSE I WANTED THE [BLEEP]
OFF OUT OF HERE.

ANYWAY, I'M KIND OF LOOKING
FORWARD TO THE TRIP NOW.

NARRATOR:
THE KING WILL GUIDE THE CONVOY

OVER THE NOTORIOUS
130 MILE STRETCH

TO THE REMOTE TOWN OF BROCHET.

ART:
WE'RE ON OUR WAY AGAIN HERE,
BOY,

IT'S NICE AND BRIGHT OUT,

IF YOU'RE INTO NICE, BIG,
PINK SUNS AND EVERYTHING,

WHICH I KIND OF AM.

ART:
OKAY BUDDY, I'LL WAIT AT
THE TOP, SEE HOW YOU DO.

NARRATOR:
THE KING'S BRAVED THIS RUGGED
TRAIL DOZENS OF TIMES BEFORE

IN HIS RESURRECTED 1974
BIG RIG.

HE'S NICKNAMED
"THE SCREAMIN' FORD."

[TRUCK RATTLES]

NARRATOR:
HAULING AN ADDITIONAL LOAD
OF CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT...

THE KING'S LOOKING TO LEAD
THE CONVOY TO THE FINISH LINE.

ART:
WE'RE GOING THROUGH THE WATER,
LOTS OF WATER HERE, BOY,

BETTER GRAB ANOTHER GEAR.

[SPLASHING]

IT'S LIKE DRIVING A HORSE
WITH THREE [BLEEP] LEGS.

THERE'S NO RHYTHM TO IT
AT ALL.

THIS I LIKE ONE OF THE [BLEEP]
ELECTRIC BULLS

OR WHATEVER THEY [BLEEP]
SIT ON, YOU SEE THEM ON TV.

SAME THING.

I'VE NEVER BEEN ON ONE OF THEM

SO I WOULDN'T REALLY KNOW MUCH
ABOUT [BLEEP] RIDING BULLS.

I KNOW A BIT ABOUT BULL[BLEEP].

NARRATOR:
THE FINAL FEW MILES ARE
THE TOUGHEST ON THE TRAIL.

NARRATOR:
INCLUDING A DEADLY STRETCH
NICKNAMED RICOCHET HILL.

YEAH, I DON'T HAVE ONE OF THEM
BIG BUMPERS LIKE YOU'VE GOT.

IF I DO THAT,
THIS'LL BE [BLEEP].

FENDERS AND EVERYTHING WILL
[BLEEP] FALL OFF OF THIS, BOY.

THIS IS ALL FIBREGLASS
AND PAPER.

NARRATOR: TO TRY AND MAKE IT UP THE HILL,

THE KING KICKS IT
INTO HIGH GEAR.

[TRUCK ENGINE ROARS]

[LOUD CRASH]

NARRATOR:
IN THE NORTHERN MOST
STRETCHES OF MANITOBA...

[LOUD CRASH]

NARRATOR:
A KING HAS BEEN DETHRONED.

ART:
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT UP THERE,
BOY?

I'LL SEE IF WE DID
ANY DAMAGE.

NARRATOR:
ON THE FINAL STRETCH TO
THE REMOTE TOWN OF BROCHET,

THE KING OF OBSOLETE WAS UNABLE TO CONQUER RICOCHET HILL.

WELCOME TO RICOCHET HILL.

ART:
EVERYTHING'S GOOD?

I WAS IN LOW RANGE,
AND IT JUST COME AROUND

AND THE FRONT END
JUST WOULDN'T STEER,

IT JUST HIT THE SNOWBANK.

WE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH
STEERING TRACTION.

[TRUCK ENGINE ROARS]

NARRATOR:
SO NOW, HE'S GOT TO GET
HIS "SCREAMING FORD"

OUT FROM UNDER
FOUR FEET OF SNOW.

ART:
YOU'RE DIGGING IN DEEPER
AND DEEPER, JOEY, BOY.

I NEED TO BE ABLE TO BACK UP
OR I CAN'T GO FORWARD.

[ENGINE ROARS]

GO RIGHT INTO THE BANK,
OL' BUDDY.

[TRUCK ENGINE ROARS]

THIS IS GETTING EMBARRASSING.

[TRUCK ENGINE ROARS]

ART:
I'LL TELL YOU ONE [BLEEP]
THING,

THERE'S NOT A DULL MOMENT
THIS TRIP.

IT'S AN EXCITING [BLEEP]
MORNING, I'LL TELL YOU THAT.

LOOK AT THIS.

WE PLOUGHED HER INTO THE WOODS
TWICE HERE, NOW.

I DIDN'T THINK HE WAS GONNA
COME OUT OF THAT, BOY.

A LOT OF WEIGHT EH,
THAT'S ALL THE [BLEEP]...

NARRATOR:
NOW IT'S TIME FOR ART
TO CONFRONT THE KING SLAYER.

OKAY, SEE WHAT WE CAN DO
WITH THIS.

[GEARS CRANK]

[TRUCK ENGINE RUMBLES]

OH [BLEEP]! WHAT A [BLEEP] DAY
THIS HAS BEEN, MAN.

[LAUGHS]

HOLY [BLEEP].

[BLEEP] HAPPENS, BUDDY.

DON'T BE EMBARRASSED ABOUT
THAT, FOR [BLEEP] SAKE.

YOU WANNA FOLLOW ME AROUND
FOR ABOUT A WEEK.

NARRATOR:
UP THE ROAD...

THE CONVOY CLOSES
IN ON BROCHET.

NARRATOR:
AND THE UNLIKELY DUO
COMES THROUGH FOR POLAR.

ART:
WE JUST LANDED IN BROCHET,

WE'RE GONNA DROP THESE
TRAILERS OFF.

WE'RE ABOUT TWO HOURS BEHIND
SCHEDULE,

BUT THE MAIN THING
IS WE'RE HERE,

NO DAMAGE TO ANYTHING.

NARRATOR:
WITH THE LOADS ON THE BOOKS

WHEN THE COMPANY NEEDS THEM
MOST.

I MIGHT HAVE DONE THIS TWICE
ON THE WAY BACK,

MAYBE THREE TIMES.

I'LL TAKE A PICTURE
OF YOU THEN?

ART: OKAY, SEE YA.
JOEY: ALL RIGHT.

ART:
SEE YA AFTER, BUDDY.

NARRATOR:
ART MAY BE ON THE COME BACK
TRAIL.

ART:
AWAY WE GO.

I GUESS I'LL HIGHTAIL IT
TO WINNIPEG.

NARRATOR: BUT 250 MILES TO THE SOUTHEAST,

A POLAR CONVOY IS STILL
OUT ON THE ROAD.

MARK WAS STRESSING
THE IMPORTANCE OF GETTING
THESE LAST TWO LOADS IN.

AND THESE LOADS ARE IMPORTANT

BECAUSE OF ALL THE TIME
AND INVESTMENT THAT'S GONE
INTO THIS ROAD,

THERE'S A CERTAIN AMOUNT
OF LOADS

THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO TAKE
TO MAKE LIKE THE BARE MINIMUM
BACK,

AND I THINK THESE TWO LOADS
ARE THAT BARE MINIMUM.

♪♪♪

NARRATOR:
LISA KELLY AND TODD DEWEY
ARE PUSHING ON

TRYING TO CLOSE OUT THE
COMPANY'S CRITICAL UTIK LAKE
CONTRACT.

BUT THE NARROW TRAIL
AND SLICK CONDITIONS

HAVE THEM QUICKLY FALLING
BEHIND SCHEDULE.

TRYING TO HURRY IN.

TIME'S CLICKING AWAY
AND I GET GRUMPY

WHEN TOO MUCH TIME GOES BY

WHEN I THINK I SHOULD BE
FARTHER DOWN THE ROAD.

AND I THINK I SHOULD BE FARTHER
DOWN THE ROAD, SO I'M GRUMPY.

NARRATOR:
AND AS DAY TURNS TO NIGHT,

THERE'S TROUBLE UP AHEAD.

TODD:
HOLY SMOKES!

WE ARE IN A HUGE LINE UP
OF TRUCKS. HOLY MOLY!

THERE'S ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR,
FIVE, SIX, SEVEN.

HOLY [BLEEP]!

THIS NIGHT JUST TURNED
INTO A [BLEEP].

PROBABLY WE'LL BE SLEEPING IN
OUR TRUCKS RIGHT HERE, LIS.

LISA:
ARE THEY MOVING
OR ARE THEY SLEEPING?

TODD:
THEY'RE ALL STOPPED RIGHT
THROUGH. SEVEN OF THEM.

LISA:
OH, BUMMER.

TODD:
[BLEEP] I'LL GO OUT FIND OUT
KIND OF WHAT'S GOING ON HERE.

LISA:
10-4. THEY'RE, OOH, WOW!
THAT IS A LINE UP.

WE STILL HAVE A HUNDRED
KILOMETRES TO GO.

TODD:
THEY'RE SPUN OUT
ON THE HILL.

LISA: WHY NOT?
TODD: THERE'S NO WAY WE CAN GET
AROUND SEVEN OF THEM.

TODD:
SIX HOURS JUST TURNED
INTO TWELVE.

I'M JUST [BLEEP] PISSED!
DAMN IT!

NARRATOR:
ON THE ROUTE TO REMOTE
UTIK LAKE...

LISA:
SOME GUY IS STUCK ON THE HILL.

TODD'S GOING UP THERE TO HELP.

NARRATOR:
A WINTER ROAD'S TRAFFIC JAM

COULD DERAIL A CRITICAL RUN
FOR POLAR.

TODD
IF YOU CAN JUST BACK UP
ABOUT ANOTHER TEN FEET.

NARRATOR:
AN 37 TONNE BIG RIG
HAS SPUN OUT ON THE HILL

BLOCKING ALL TRAVEL IN AND OUT.

SO TODD HELPS DIRECT THE DRIVER

AS HE TRIES TO MANOEUVRE
OUT OF THE WAY.

[BACKING UP BEEPS]

TODD:
HOLD ON, YOU'RE GOING OFF
THE ROAD!

GOING OFF THE ROAD!
YOU MIGHT WANT TO WAIT!

STOP!

[TIRES SPINNING]

YOU GOT YOUR WHOLE TRAILER
CLEAR OFF THE ROAD NOW.

NARRATOR:
DESPITE TODD'S WARNINGS,

THE TRUCKER LODGED HIS RIG
DEEP INTO THE DITCH.

THE OTHER GUYS, ARE THEY UP WAY
FAR AHEAD OF YA TO PULL YA?

DID THEY JUST KEEP ON GOING
AND LEAVE YA?

MAN:
NO, THEY'RE UP THERE.

TODD:
THEY MIGHT HAVE TO BACK UP HERE.

WE'VE GET A LONG [BLEEP]
CHAIN OUT HERE,

BECAUSE NOW YOU'RE [BLEEP] OFF
THE ROAD BACK HERE.

[TRUCK ENGINE HUMS]

THAT'S BAD.

TODD:
YEAH, WE'RE WAY BEHIND SCHEDULE.

THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO, LIS.

NARRATOR:
NOW, WITH THE LOAD COUNT
ON THE LINE,

TODD AND LISA ARE AT THE MERCY
OF OTHER DRIVERS.

TODD:
THAT'S MAKING ME HAVE TWICE
AS LONG A NIGHT

AS I WANTED TO HAVE.

SO I'M SITTING IN MY TRUCK,

THERE'S NOTHING MORE TO SAY
ABOUT IT,

THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO.
THAT'S IT.

NARRATOR:
AS THE MINUTES TICK AWAY,

POLAR'S FORTUNES ARE MELTING
FASTER THAN THE ROADS.

OH, I WANNA GO TO BED,
I'M GETTING TIRED.

TODD:
TRIED TO HELP HIM.

TELL HIM HE NEEDED TO BACK DOWN
THE HILL.

WHEN HE WAS BACKING DOWN
THE HILL,

I WAS TELLING HIM TO STOP,
AND HE WOULDN'T LISTEN TO ME,

AND HE BACKED RIGHT INTO
THE DITCH.

[FOOTSTEPS CRUNCH SNOW]

THE LAST SIX HOURS OF ME
AND LISA'S RUN

THAT WE COULD HAVE HAD JUST
TURNED INTO ABOUT AN 18-HOUR
TRIP

BECAUSE THESE GUYS HAVE NO IDEA
WHAT THEY'RE DOING.

I'M TIRED, I'M GRUMPY,
I KNOW THAT.

MAN:
EASE THE THROTTLE,
SHIFT YOUR GEARS EASY.

YOU DON'T WANNA SPIN
YOUR TIRES.

[TRUCK ENGINE RUMBLES]

NARRATOR:
FINALLY THE OTHER COMPANY
CLEARS THE PATH

AND POLAR IS BACK IN BUSINESS.

LISA:
ALL RIGHT, HERE I COME.

RIGHT NOW WE'RE GONNA CONTINUE
ON AND JUST TOOT ALONG.

JUST SLOW PACE AND JUST IDLE
ALONG FOLLOWING THESE GUYS IN

UNTIL WE GET THERE.
AND THAT'S IT.

NARRATOR:
BUT THEY'VE LOST VALUABLE TIME

AND MUST DRIVE THROUGH
THE NIGHT

TO DELIVER ON SCHEDULE.

LISA:
WHAT A NIGHTMARE.

NARRATOR:
170 MILES TO THE SOUTH...

ALEX:
EVERYTHING IS GOING GREAT.

AS LONG AS THE TRUCK KEEPS
MOVING, I CAN SEE.

NARRATOR:
HAULING NEARLY 40,000 POUNDS,

ALEX DEBOGORSKI'S LOOKING
TO KEEP VP IN THE GAME,

AND CLOSE OUT A VALUABLE
CONTRACT.

ALEX:
HOPEFULLY WE'LL BE
IN ST. THERESA POINT

BEFORE SIX IN THE MORNING.

NARRATOR:
THE VETERAN'S ON
THE HOME STRETCH...

[WARNING BEEPS]

BUT WITH LESS
THAN 50 MILES TO GO...

ALEX:
WHAT'S DOING THE BEEPING?

[BEEPING]
MY DASH LIGHTS ARE FLASHING,

I GOT RED LIGHTS FLASHING
OUTSIDE.

I'VE BEEN HAVING ELECTRICAL
PROBLEMS SINCE I STARTED.

I GOTTA KNOW WHEN
MY CHARGING SYSTEM'S DONE.

NARRATOR:
IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT,

POWER FAILURE IS AN ICE ROAD
TRUCKER'S NIGHTMARE.

ALEX:
THERE'S A CERTAIN AMOUNT
OF VOLTAGE

THIS ELECTRONIC ENGINE NEEDS
TO RUN.

WHEN I GET TO THAT VOLTAGE,
ENGINE TURNS OFF.

ALL I HAVE TO DO
IS GO TO EIGHT VOLTS,

AND THEN THE TRUCK QUITS.

NARRATOR: BUT IF IT HAPPENS ON THE ICE...

THE DALTON RIVER ICE CROSSING.

NARRATOR:
ALEX AND HIS 31 TONNE RIG
WON'T HAVE A PRAYER.

ALEX:
[BLEEP]

ALEX:
I'M JUST GETTING READY
TO GO DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE.

[BEEPING, GEAR CRANK]

DEAR GOD,
PLEASE KEEP US SAFE.

IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER,
THE SON, THE HOLY SPIRIT. AMEN.

NARRATOR:
ON AN ICE CROSSING OUTSIDE
OF ST. THERESA POINT...

ALEX:
I'M JUST GETTING READY
TO GO DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE.

NO ENOUGH POWER
TO TURN THE HIGH BEAMS ON,

SO THE SOONER WE GET THIS IN,
THE BETTER.

NARRATOR:
IT COULD BE LIGHTS OUT
FOR ALEX DEBOGORSKI.

CHARGING SYSTEM IS DOWN AROUND
ELEVEN VOLTS FOR SOME REASON,

I DON'T KNOW WHY.

I JUST DON'T WANT IT
TO QUIT ON ME.

NARRATOR:
HIS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
IS FAILING,

AND IF IT SHUTS DOWN
COMPLETELY,

HE'LL BE STUCK
ON THE MELTING ICE.

ALEX:
I SEEM TO BE LOSING MY BATTERY
FOR SOME REASON.

USUALLY I'VE GOT 14 VOLTS,
AND I'M DOWN TO ABOUT 11 VOLTS.

AND I DON'T KNOW WHY.

ELEVEN VOLTS DON'T CUT IT,
SUPPOSED TO BE AROUND 14.

[WARNING BEEPS]

I MEAN, IT'S HOLDING 11 VOLTS,

I DON'T KNOW QUITE
WHAT'S GOING ON HERE.

♪♪♪

OKAY, WE'RE OFF THE ICE.

NARRATOR:
THE RIG PROVIDES JUST ENOUGH
JUICE TO GET HIM ACROSS.

ALEX:
I GOT NO CHOICE NOW
BUT TO DRIVE 'ER.

DRIVE 'ER TILL SHE DROPS.

NARRATOR:
AND A FEW MILES LATER...

ALEX:
WE MADE 'ER.

NARRATOR:
THE VETERAN LIMPS
TO HIS DESTINATION.

ALEX:
THERE'S THE LAY DOWN YARD.

NARRATOR:
WITH THE DELIVERY
TO ST. THERESA POINT,

VP HOLDS ON TO A NARROW LEAD
IN THE LOAD COUNT.

ALEX:
AH, WHY DO I DO THESE THINGS?
[CHUCKLES]

[WIND GUSTS]

NARRATOR:
BUT AS MORNING BREAKS...

TODD:
YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN PUSHING
REALLY HARD NOW

FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF.

IT'S GETTING CLOSE TO THE END
OF THE SEASON.

NARRATOR:
THE COMPETITION'S COMING
ON STRONG.

WE'VE JUST BEEN RUNNING
NON-STOP. WE'VE BEEN BUSY.

NARRATOR:
AFTER DRIVING THROUGH
THE NIGHT,

LISA KELLY AND TODD DEWEY
CLOSE IN ON UTIK LAKE.

THE PLAN IS TO GET OFFLOADED
AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.

[SCHOOL BUS ENGINE STARTS]

TODD:
A-OK. SHE FIRED RIGHT UP,

AND THAT'S A GOOD DEAL
RIGHT THERE.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!

DAMN IT!

HALFWAY OFF.

NO PROBLEMO.

[BUS CREAKS,
BACKING UP BEEPING]

TODD:
HANG ON.

YEE HAW!

THAT'S HOW YOU DO IT.

LISA:
YOU READY?

TODD:
YEAH, I THINK WE'RE READY.

I'M READY TO GET THE [BLEEP]
OUT OF HERE.

LISA:
WE'VE GOTTA GET BACK
TO WINNIPEG

TO SEE IF THEY HAVE
ANYTHING ELSE

BEFORE THE ROADS CLOSE DOWN
FOR THE YEAR.

TODD:
IT'S BEEN A LOT OF WORK,
AND WE'RE REALLY WORN OUT,

AND WE'RE REALLY TIRED.

SO WE'RE REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING BACK TO WINNIPEG
TOMORROW MORNING

AND HEAD RIGHT BACK OUT
ON THE ICE ROADS.

NARRATOR: BUT 270 MILES TO THE SOUTHEAST,

THERE'S ANOTHER PAIR
OF DRIVERS ON A ROLL.

DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW
TO TELL TIME ON IT?

RENO: YEAH, IT'S ABOUT 12:05.
DARRELL: LONG WITH THE MINUTE
HAND.

NARRATOR:
DARRELL AND RENO WARD,

ARE CLOSING IN ON THEIR
DESTINATION AHEAD OF SCHEDULE.

DARRELL:
I DIDN'T KNOW
IF YOU YOUNG GENERATION

EVEN KNOW HOW TO TELL TIME
ON A REGULAR CLOCK.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU
LOOKED AT A REGULAR CLOCK?

WHEN I'M UP HERE I DON'T NEED
TO KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS

OTHER THAN OFF MY DASH
SO I CAN DO MY LOG BOOK.

ALL DIGITAL.

SO, IF THE SHORT HAND
IS ON THE TWO,

AND THE LONG HAND
IS ON THE FIVE...

RENO: YEAH.
DARRELL: WHAT TIME IS IT?

2:25, AND IT'S GOING TO BE
A LITTLE BIT PAST THE TWO.

DID YOU KNOW THERE
WAS A SECOND HAND?

YEAH.

NOT ALL CLOCKS HAVE 'EM.
RENO: NO.

DARRELL:
I WANNA GET OFFLOADED
AND GET TURNED AROUND,

HEADED THE OTHER DIRECTION.

NARRATOR:
WITH THE DELIVERY TO BIG
TROUT LAKE,

THE FATHER AND SON TEAM
CONTINUES MAKING NOISE.

DARRELL:
NO TIME TO SIT AROUND.

NARRATOR:
AND WITH FEW REMAINING
LOADS LEFT IN THE SEASON...

DARRELL:
LET'S ROLL.

NARRATOR:
THEY COULD PROVE TO BE
THE SPOILER

IN THE BATTLE
FOR THE LOAD COUNT.

WATCH THESE EDGES, THOUGH.

BE DAMN SURE YOU WANT TO STAY
AWAY FROM THEM.

BUT I'M NOT GONNA TELL YOU
HOW TO DO YOUR JOB.

YEAH.

I GUESS IT'S JUST THAT
INSTINCTIVE WISDOM.

THE WISER YOU ARE, THE MORE
YOUR INSTINCTS KICK IN.

SO IF I TOLD YOU EVERYTHING
I KNOW,

YOU'D KNOW AS MUCH AS I DO.

NO, I HAVE [BLEEP] WISDOM ON MY
OWN.

YEAH, LIKE WHAT?
RENO: COLLAGE TRIGONOMETRY.

I TAUGHT YOU THAT, TOO.

YOU CAN'T EVEN SPELL
TRIGONOMETRY.

I CAN SPELL TRIGONOMETRY.
TRIG-A-NOMETRY.

RENO: NO.
DARRELL: [CHUCKLES]

NARRATOR:
NEXT TIME ON
"ICE ROAD TRUCKER"...

YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT'S
GONNA HAPPEN.

THIS IS GONNA BE FUN.

NARRATOR:
AS THE SEASON NEARS
THE FINISH LINE...

HANG ON, BOYS.

OH!

WE COULD BE IN
FOR QUITE AN ADVENTURE.

NARRATOR:
THE DRIVERS TAKE ON THEIR
BIGGEST CHALLENGE EVER.

THIS IS GONNA THE BE
THE FARTHEST ICE ROAD

THAT ANY OF US HAVE EVER,
EVER TRAVELLED.

NARRATOR:
THE LONGEST WINTER ROAD
IN THE WORLD.
