As I sit looking all around,
Confusion and uncertainty is all I found.
The answers are there,
But I do not know where.
Optimistic and hopeful dreams,
Are all I have so it seems.
The future I do not know,
So all I can do is take it slow.
But I do know it will work out,
So I wait and watch without a doubt

You should matcat, them or Lynden, those are the two main carriers up there, then there's Wal-Mart too!...just have to get used to only having ONE road...well I guess there's two, but the last pictures on the Cassiar isn't well travelled. Can you spell ISOLATION? If you can get used to the peace & quiet of travelling down a highway for hours & not seeing a single vehicle, then you got it made!

IRT is a healthy dose of BS. The pay is good because you can drive 105 hrs in 7 days.
Any numbers you hear are gross $ to the truck.
And for many in the northern parts, February/March is an awful quiet time of year employment wise, so it's a good gig.
The danger is all fabricated. Insurance policy costs the same as running down the road.
The scenery on the show however, is just a teaser, it is gorgeous up there.
I recommend turning the sound down and just watching the pictures.

Very nice "second round" of pics. I see you caught another couple of "UFOs". Love the mountains. Don't get to see much of them from here, though. Not real ones, anyhow. I envy you.

Those are some beautiful pictures. I just have one question. How do you keep your hood so clean? Do you get out and clean it before each shot?
