1. Attention employers: We now require a valid DOT# for anyone wishing to post a driving position. If your job offer doesn't contain a DOT number, it will not get past moderation and will not appear in the forum. The other requirements in the sticky at the top of this section are still required as well. Thank you for understanding.

Who do i call about driving the ice roads ?

    The truck operator is "Tli-Cho Landtran". You need to talk to them to get a job. Google them and go to their careers page.


    You will also need that Canadian work visa.
    Good luck and stay dry!

    This thread is making me cold!

    Is money really worth it???

    I get the whole adventure aspect of it... It just seems to me you can get the same high Ice fishing or simply riding a snowmobile over a lake...lol

    RTL and Ventures West are the two fuel carriers on the ice road and I am pretty sure RTL does freight as well.

    Perhaps. I once had to run a snowmobile across a 200 ft stress crack in the ice. That mean's open water. It's an adventure and it leaves a neat little pinch mark on the seat.

    Yes, but if you get dunked in the water under the ice, manage to get back out, you will be very very cold!

    Ice is water in a solid state. and air at -40 makes a person with liquid water on them have it turn to solid very fast. LOL.... Naw, I'll stay on the roads and off the ice
