    Also we have a female Ice Road Trucker on this forum, her name is wildcat. If you do a search for her, she has some AWESOME pics posted. She is mostly in the "Women In Trucking' forum.
    Check out my MySpace page or my hubby's (kj4aqt.org) - the last one has hundreds of pics which I took going down the road. Enjoy!!

    Discovery Channel did a way better job of the story a few years ago. History channel is a Johnny-come-lately to the topic. As far as the subzero temps, ask anybody driving in the northern tier of the US, let alone southern Canada. They usually don't drive on frozen lakes or rivers though, that takes HUGE ones. BOL

    I wasn't trying to be facetious or flip about my post, there is a new season of Ice Road Truckers airing this summer. I just felt it was a lot
    to put on the line with what they were doing, blood diamonds and all.
    I think I would rather be a roadie for Kiss than kill myself for DeBeers...

    Does that come on before or after the one about Will and Sonny?
    Don't trust anybody. Especially that guy in the mirror.

    I watched this show and I liked it a lot.

    I drove in subzero temperatures on snow all the time, but never on ice!
    ice scares me.

    respect to these drivers and to anyone brave enough to venture those runs.
