In savage blizzards; blinding whiteouts and 60-below-zero temperatures; steel axles snap like twigs; brakes and steering wheels seize up; bare hands freeze when they touch metal. The lake ice cracks and sometimes gives way; so the roadbuilders drive with one hand on the door; ready to jump.John Denison and his crew waited for the coldest; darkest days of winter every year to set out to build a 520-kilometre road made of ice and snow; from Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories to a silver mine on Great Bear Lake; above the Arctic Circle - this is their story. Edith Iglauer was the first outsider ever to accompany them as they worked. This book; her chronicle of a gruelling; fascinating journey through Canada's north; has sold over 20;000 copies since its first publication in 1974.
