Polar Industries goes for the record books, sending driver Todd on a risky run to deliver the heaviest load in company history. But will the weight prove to be too much on a tenuous ice crossing? Art is sent on a high stakes rescue mission and finds the job more than he bargained for. Lisa lands an exclusive contract over one of the wildest trails in Canada. Darrell steals a load from Polar, leading to a clash between him and Mark.
At the top of the world, in the coldest parts of North America, there is a whole trucking industry that most people had never heard of. Some communities and industries can only be reached for a few months each year, when rivers or seas freeze over. Ice Road Truckers features the activities of drivers who operate trucks on seasonal routes crossing frozen lakes and rivers in remote arctic territories in Canada and Alaska.
Seasons 1 and 2 are based in Canada's Northwest Territories, first the diamond mines around Yellowknife and then the Mackenzie River ice road from Inuvik. Seasons 3 and 4 move to the USA and focus on Alaska's improved but still remote Dalton Highway, supplying the oilfields in Prudhoe Bay. Seasons 5 and 6 split coverage between Alaska and the winter roads Winnipeg, in Canada's Manitoba, while Alex heads farther north than ever before on the deadly Dempster.
