Oh , I ,could tell you stories about the 1st Man to build an Ice Road over the Beaufort Sea !! Ah the Pingo's !! And the Ice Road from Inuvik to Tuk !! Also 1st Man to be part of building the 1st Man-made Island in the Beaufort Sea.. They would dredge up from the bottom of the Beaufort Sea & as they were doing that , when there was enough sand etc. they would bring in a Srkorsky Chopper & lower a Cat. , then Lower him down & as they dredged up from the bottom of the Beaufort , he would build the Island , once it was big enough , they would bring in Brick-a-Brack & put it around the Island . Then set up a Drill to Drill for Oil .. His JOB ,was over for the time being , but if they did not find Oil. Then it was his Job , to Dismantle the Island in an Environment way & leave no Trace , that was the Important part !! to him, so the Fragile Eco-system of the Arctic was not disturbed .. It is a Family legacy , Diary he kept & the Photo's etc. And the Adventure of it all & the sense of Humour , he managed to keep thru the White-outs & all .. Harsh days then , But the Love for the Arctic never left him .. Nor his Writings of it .. It is Wonderful to see this Vid , all these years later & the Humour . Thank-you !!
The snowplow driver deserves a medal for conspicuous gallantry. Just for going out with Rick.
just love this guy What a Canadian !!!
That man telling people too roll in the snow could very well safe my life and possibly someone else's one day
Kurt is the unsung hero here. What a gentleman!
I am SO jealous ! What a job he's got.
Why is it that everytime Mercer get behind the wheel of a snowplow he's gotta do donuts?
I dunno about you, but I'd make sure that was in my contract.
Wouldn't you?
Maybe he really wants to work at Tim Hortons.
Maybe, does he speak Portugese?
Rick you are such a big kid!!!
when he started doing donuts, i thought, here is where they will find the remains of the Mercer expedition in a hundred years.
Lol Rick burning fuel like there is a gas station on every corner of the dam north pole
