Ice Road Truckers

[opening narration, season 1]

Narrator:
At the top of the world, there's an outpost like no other - and a job only a few would dare. The mission: to haul critical supplies across three hundred and fifty miles of frozen lakes to Canada's remote, billion-dollar diamond mines.

Alex Debogorski:
It's called the dash for the cash.

Narrator:
The challenge: to transport ten thousand loads in sixty days - before the road disappears. The rewards are great.

Rick Yemm:
Get me hooked up to make some money!

Narrator:
The risks, even greater. These are the men who make their living on thin ice.

[Opening narration, season 2]

Narrator:
At the top of the world, there's an outpost like no other - and a job only a few would dare. The ice men return. Two titans of the southern ice roads...

Hugh Rowland:
Now we're back in the saddle!

Narrator:
...and two contenders.

Rick Yemm:
It's a whole new adventure.

Narrator:
Last season, they drove loaded semis on frozen lakes - this year, the Arctic Ocean. Deeper into the deep freeze. Further out on thinner ice. The new mission: to haul the heavy metal of natural gas drilling rigs up a frozen river and across ice-choked seas. Ice road truckers have come to the edge of the earth. These are the men who make their living on thin ice.

[opening narration:
season 3]

Narrator:
At the top of the world, there's a job only a few would dare. Last season, the dash for the cash was fought on the smooth playing field of Canada's Arctic ice. This season, two old pros join four of America's bravest truckers to tackle the tundra's deadliest ice passage. Just when you thought extreme trucking couldn't get more dangerous, ice road truckers take on Alaska. These are the truckers who make their living on thin ice.
