Ep 3. Breakdown

In the 10th season, episode 3 of Ice Road Truckers titled "Breakdown," the truckers push themselves beyond their limits as they brave the treacherous terrains of Alaska's Dalton Highway and Canada's Dempster Highway. The episode follows the truckers as they navigate their way through extreme weather conditions, hazardous roads, and dangerous slopes while carrying heavy loads of goods.

The episode begins with Lisa Kelly, a seasoned trucker, facing challenges with her truck's steering. To add to her troubles, she finds that her route is through the steepest mountain passes in Alaska; a road known to be one of the riskiest in the area. Faced with the possibility of her truck failing on her, Lisa must navigate the unforgiving terrain with extreme caution.

Meanwhile, trucker Reno Ward finds himself behind schedule as he struggles to keep up with his delivery orders. In an attempt to cut through the thick snow of Canada's Dempster Highway, Reno finds himself in the middle of a whiteout - a situation where a driver becomes disoriented due to a loss of visibility. With cautious steps, Reno drives his rig through the blinding snow and manages to avoid danger.

Another trucker, Art Burke, finds himself in a tough spot after his truck breaks down in the middle of the day. With heavy loads still on board and the fear of theft looming, Art must wait for the maintenance crew to fix his rig and get back on the road. At the same time, Todd Dewey rushes to complete his job, lest he get stuck in the torrential downpour that's just ahead of him.

As the episode continues, all the truckers face their own sets of challenges, from getting through difficult landscapes to completing their jobs on time. Some manage to navigate through the toughest terrains, while others have to stop for repairs and wait for help. But all the truckers know that time is running out as they race against the clock to deliver their loads safely and on time.

In the end, as the episode draws to a close, the truckers look back with a sense of pride and accomplishment at what they have achieved. They have conquered the toughest roads, faced the toughest challenges, and have come out victorious. As the sun sets over the snow-capped mountains, the truckers drive into the horizon, ready to face another day on the ice roads.
