Narrator: At the top of the world, there's an outpost like no other - and a job only a few would dare. The mission: to haul critical supplies across three hundred and fifty miles of frozen lakes to Canada's remote, billion-dollar diamond mines.
Alex Debogorski: It's called the dash for the cash.
Narrator: The challenge: to transport ten thousand loads in sixty days - before the road disappears. The rewards are great.
Rick Yemm: Get me hooked up to make some money!

Poor Narrator, 19 August 2007
7/10
Author: wacocga from United States

The show is OK, but that narrator??!! Is he trying to imitate John Wayne or Howard Cosell? He has a halting, style so slow I could make a ham sandwich between words. He narrates many A&E shows, but for some reason his delivery is slower on I.R.T. He's also using a weird kind of accent he doesn't use on the other shows he narrates. The Characters are colorful enough, but I can't take the narration for very long. Apart from the narration, it's better than anything else during the summer rerun season on Sunday night. All in all, I think I'd rather spend a week on a crab boat and make twice as much as these guys without the expense of a big rig.
