- Highway to the Arctic: Canada's Ice Roads
World’s Most Dangerous Roads | The Canadian Ice Roads: • World’s Most Dangerous...
Every winter, ice roads are built across hundreds of miles in Canada's far north, connecting frozen rivers and lakes, and stretching up to the very northern tip of the country by the Arctic Ocean. For the people living in the remote villages of this region these “ice highways” are of vital importance. Until April, trucks are coming up here all the way from down south, bringing supply goods for the whole year to these locals, and life changes until the ice roads are melting again and disappearing into the ocean.
For decades, ice roads have been built across the icy tundra in Canada's far north, the Northwest Territories, every single winter. These so-called "ice highways" lead to a remote and inhospitable world impresses everyone with its raw beauty. It is a cold primeval world, almost unimaginable for Europeans these days, yet people are actually living there. The locals, who have settled in remote villages up here, have adjusted to the Arctic nature; the ice roads are their temporary connection to the outside world. While life in summertime can be tough and arduous, winter allows the locals to replenish their stocks, easily reach remote hunting grounds and turns the ice roads into a place for fairs where people can celebrate life and their culture.

Friends All these calamities that are going on around the world is going to lead to a Sunday law which will be the MARK of The BEAST, Those that keep God's seventh day sabbath will be persecuted and prohibited from buying and selling, Jesus is coming soon.
In March 2016, I travelled from Victoria, British Columbia all the way to Tuktoyaktuk just so I could say I drove the ice road and walked on the Arctic Ocean before the government extended the Dempster Hwy. It was an 8,500km, 10-day round trip and a day of that was being stuck in Eagle Plains due to a blizzard. It was a fantastic experience and this documentary brought back a flood of memories.
How do you refuel along the road?

I love it how people in these more remote places seem to appreciate the simpler things in life. They take competitions seriously and take traditions seriously just to name a couple. Food is seen as a necessity and gift rather than a luxury choice or a chore.
My friend none of this is simple
@@sararobinson6571it's not that simple but not that hard either. I think it's where I'm meant to be
I drove from KY to Tuk in summer 2022. I loved the experience and the locals were so friendly and welcoming. Great memories. So glad I overcame fear of solo traveling at 78.
Good on you!! My 80 y/o brother in law just drove from Canada to Daytona/New Orleans and back towing a travel trailer by himself. The worst part he said was being tailgated by others most of the time even if he drove the speed limit. So many taking useless risk to save a couple minutes. Too many people on drugs inconsiderate of other road users. I’ll tell him to visit the Yukon next time. Thanks.
I never comment on CZcams videos but that is awesome! I would love to do something like that one day.
My son (who is 8 years old) and I we enjoy this documentaries very much. He is always wondering and asking me who is behind filming them and hope one day he see the behind the scene. Thank you!!!
They are from France, it's a TV show documentary like netgeo, and this CZcams buy the copyright fromthem and upload it on their channel.
@@aashishkc4078 thanks for the information.
@@aashishkc4078 In the credits it says Munich and all the names are German.
@@DR-po4ib but they are from France trust me I used to watch this documentary on tv
@@aashishkc4078 This doc was made by Germans. Read the credits. You know the documentaries on this channel are not all from the same source right.
We lived in inuvik for 17 years. Travelled the ice roads for all those years. Beautiful, we do miss the arctic!!
Where did you relocate to? The tropics of Toronto?
Where are you living now??
Amazing country and people! My late husband used to work up north by the McKenzie River and show us pictures but to watch this documentaries made it complete . Thank you so much for the incredible documentation of the people’s lives and the North…
why was your husband late for work
@@yunglifty3523 she means her husband is no more.
I marvel at the good spirits everyone seems to be in, in spite of the extremely harsh conditions. I, for one, have a lot to learn from these brave people!
Canada is beautiful
trudeau a joke
@@dufus2273 a country isnt about one man.
@@thepissfountain truth my man
Yup, 1bedroom for 1million$ is also beautiful in here
Beautiful and cold
This is an excellent documentary about the Northern Ice Roads, the people of the Northern Territory’s called NWT. I travelled this part of the world in my earlier years and the beauty will always stay with me even at minus 45 below. I was lucky enough to be on the Dempster Highway when they were building it and the country was beyond spectacular1
Loved Ice Road Truckers when it first started. Take me back to that time lol
i've watched this a lot too
I love ice road truckers!! I miss it! I would watch it over and over again if I could! I respect the truckers putting their lives on the line to get supplies up there.
I had the pleasure of meeting Alex (the preacher) in the Vancouver Airport, he was traveling with his son!! NICEST GUY, dropped all his luggage to pose for pics and autographs, he actually made me feel like we were long time friends! He might be called The Preacher, but he's a SAINT in my books for what he does for Northern Canada's people!! 🙏😇 😎

Extremely well done video, the way you captured Canada's Northern people is awesome!! Thank you for sharing this with us!! 👍😎
Absolutely fascinating. A look into the lives of others in Canada that I have never seen and likely never will. Thanks to those people and the ones that presented this. You"re a tough bunch to be sure.
Who ever narrated this video is a damn good story teller...
Done a lot of trips to the north of Finland,Norway and Russia. Also in the winter,but this is a another world.More brutal,bad roads and the longer distances between the villages. Here is nature king and the human his servents. Respect for all of those who live there.
My favourite channel on CZcams.
Reminded me when I was a kid in elementary school they would teach us history of Canada, now nobody talks about it. Best one yet
Modern day history is not about Canada but black history! The real history is forgotten.
@@majie1018 nothing wrong with black history, they both need to be taught
Perfect content for a sunday ❤️
Check out the channel and you will feel a whole lot better 😀😀
I spent about 10 years on the DEWLINE of which one month was spent at Tuktoyaktuk in the mid 90's. It was nice to go to the store's and see regular people as opposed to just 11 people on a regular DEW site. The Arctic could be harsh in the middle of winter with cold temperatures and lots of darkness but summer brought an oasis of life. As I look back I worked with some very interesting people who came together to live and work together. As a young guy at the time only 18 I loved the years I spent in the high Arctic
Would love to go there one day. Listening to the stories and watching the people live together..... amazing. thanks for posting.
What an amazing story. Thank you for sharing in such an informative style. I grew up hearing about the ice highways, but so nice to see and hear about the people.
A lovely Sunday having to watch something new from FD Channel.
Thank you and keep these documentaries coming.
Much love from Kenya 🇰🇪👏
Thank you 🙏 oh and we will. Lots more coming!
jambo mkenya mwenza. am watching from China.
Love those hunters living off the land keeping tradition alive for those smart enough to carry on instead of relying on technology, which WILL fail at some point
I drove that road many times when I was younger and trucking back in 2000 2001 to 2004 2005
Glad to see this get posted, these dangerous roads/journeys are definitely my favorite 👍😀
I'm surprized that I recognize a lot of the scenery from the computer game "18 Wheels of Steel". Even the dome shaped church is in there, the frozen-in boats outside Inuvik, to town itself and the new all year gravel road. Great docu!
Yep, and see this documentary make me want to play snow runner again
Interesting to know more about other parts of the world. I'm from Namibia 🇳🇦, Africa.
I just drove the Dempster Highway August 2023. New Jersey to Tuktoyaktuk and back!
Nice to see the local traditions are still around and kids are learning them hope to get up there some day
Wonderful country to live and experienced all nature's Wonder...
According to Wikipedia the Canada Tuktoyaktuk Winter Road is now permanently closed and now is replaced by the Inuvik-Tuktoyaktuk Highway . Fascinating documentary .
These roads are just another reason why the far north is awesome. Like, where else in the world do you see ice roads? This is humans working with the land and climate in order to exist. Takes a very special and hardy kind of person to live there.
Very very interesting as always, thanks for uploading all of these series
sunday chill day, and boom this pops up, what a bonus...
Narrator, you have a beautiful voice and wonderful story teller. I love to visit with you... Hello from Indiana USA
thanks for taking us to the Ice world.
I love your videos. Always Superb. I am one of your admiring subscriber. I just want to say to ALL: Think BIG. NEVER give up! Don't give up cos, good things are coming for you, you will achieve your dreams in this lifetime.
The ice road from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk closed for the last time in 2017. There is now an all-weather gravel road between the two.
Yes, but free documentary always put up out of date documentaries, pretty much all of them
@@aureliaandris8240 its free and its entertaining. stop hating
@@tupacshakur97 Tupac! Sure man
Sad that they didn’t keep for nostalgia
Love your videos! Always get excited when a new one comes out!
Thanks so much, I truly loved it and learned much more than I did previously!
THESE are men and women. Such a great video. Much respect for people living and working in these conditions.
Wonderful video.
GOD BLESS EVERYONE.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO.
These are actually decent roads in the documentary wide and well maintained. North after the Yellowknife turnout towards and past Simpson is the terrible drive of the NWT if ever up for unnerving challenges.
I love anyone who reads this
Love u too man
I simply love remote villages.
Thank you FD. Another great film. 👍
I spent a lot of time in this area (Tuk, Inuvik, Norman Wells) in the 90s, working pipelines and scientific research. Love the place, and I miss it madly.
My bucket list--- to visit Canada -- from South Africa
Hats Off! to the handful of people who maintain it all. 👍💪

This is my favorite video from your channel! Loved all the content featured and the people interviewed!
Nice something good to watch on this Sunday. Thanks.
Damn...never seen this side of canada.
I mean i know it is a huge country with respect to area and it snows a lot in almost every city but not this vast land of white snow. It is a completely different world.
Secondly, i love how the people there observe and grateful for even simple things in life.
From Pakistan.
Not much different than on another frozen planet....
The most peaceful country in the western hemisphere.
This was a very nice documentary . It’s a little toooo cold for me but it looks very peaceful. I liked the sign that said Arctic circle 2 KM .
An excellent documentary, thanks!

Lived in Inuvik for 2 years in the late 80’s. Drove the ice roads to Tuk and Aklavik for work with NWT Power. Managed to get my family up the iceroad to Tuk once, they enjoyed to trip up the Mackenzie river and got to see the pingo’s.

Beautiful documentary as always :)
Every documentary is unique I learned a lot.
Eagle Plains also has an awesome LODGE with great buffet / food, and a really welcoming bar. It's not just a gas station.
Thanks for the tip!
This is beautiful, people of these regions are awesome, wish to meet em and understand their culture
Nothing but good things here 👍👏👏👏👏
crazy to think that Manatoulin Transport comes as far south to Toronto, THATS a freaking long drive, ive met few Innuits from Tuk at the Petro-Canada fuel depot, really coo to hear there stories :)
Priest is Crowly from Supernatural 😂, Documentary is just wow
This was fun to watch. Hello from Alberta.
the Dempster Highway is spectacular
Best dokumentary.. Hi.. From kedah malaysia🙋♂️🇲🇾
Seeing my own country through foreign eyes is always educational. What for us seems normal and utilitarian is seen as rare and exotic to outsiders.
Great video. The Dempster was a road on my bucket list but never had time allotted to it. Too many roads to travel.
Thank you FD♥️from 🇱🇰🇱🇰☺️😍
Amazing. Thanks for such an eye opening video.😊
Great exploration to a dangerous roads in arctic region. Interesting to watch. Thanks for sharing. I love all the contents of your channel. All full watched. Watching from Dubai🙋
How does it feel from someone used to hot weather setting freezing climate? 👀
In fact, it is a good video about the geography and weather of the area.
Very informative
Great video, love the Inuvik church...💖👍
One love maximum respect pour les inu de là-bas voilà la vrai vie que j'aimerais ici on a trop tout cuit ds le bec là-bas faut survivre comme on peut.✌️🔥😊✨
