“From its original series premiere in 2007 to a several years long hiatus, the fearless truckers return like never before to the treacherous terrain of icy roads and frozen lakes in Northern Canada delivering crucial supplies and necessities to isolated communities,” said a statement from the History Channel. “With a winter window shorter than ever and no time to waste, these drivers risk everything to haul in a lifeline of goods while chasing big paydays before the opportunity melts away under their chained tires.”
One of the most popular drivers on the show was Darrell Ward, who joined the show in the sixth season. He died in a light plane crash in August of 2016 in Montana. His son, Reno, appeared on the show as well.
The series was created and narrated by Thom Beers, who was the executive producer of another History Channel hit show, "Deadliest Catch".
