IRT Deadliest Roads : ウィキペディア英語版 | Ice Road Truckers
''Ice Road Truckers'' (commercially abbreviated ''IRT'') is a reality television series that premiered on History on June 17, 2007. It features the activities of drivers who operate trucks on seasonal routes crossing frozen lakes and rivers in remote Arctic territories in Canada and Alaska. Later series were focused on Alaska's improved but still remote Dalton Highway, which is mainly snow-covered solid ground. The newest seasons are based on Manitoba's winter roads. ==History== In 2000, History aired a 46-minute episode titled "Ice Road Truckers" as part of the ''Suicide Missions'' (later ''Dangerous Missions'') series. Based on the book ''Denison's Ice Road'' by Edith Iglauer, the episode detailed the treacherous job of driving trucks over frozen lakes, also known as ice roads, in Canada's Northwest Territories. After 2000, reruns of the documentary were aired as an episode of the series ''Modern Marvels'' instead. Under this banner, the ''Ice Road Truckers'' show garnered very good ratings. In 2006, The History Channel hired Thom Beers, owner of Original Productions and executive producer of ''Deadliest Catch'', to create a series based on the ''Ice Road'' book. Shot in high definition (although the season ended before History HD was launched in the US), the show "charts two months in the lives of six extraordinary men who haul vital supplies to diamond mines and other remote locations over frozen lakes that double as roads".〔History.com (About the Ice Road Truckers series )〕
