The History Channel continues its huge success story with Season 5 of Ice Road Truckers. For two months every year, truckers on the world's most dangerous tundra make history by hauling vital equipment to remote outposts hundreds of miles north of civilization...over roads briefly built by frozen bodies of water. Hugh, Alex, Lisa and Jack race against time, the elements and each other to transport thousands of loads before the road literally disappears into the sea. This groundbreaking series continues to examine a time-honored profession that dates back almost a century, often through generations of families.
