00:02This time on Highway Through Hell
00:08Slipping and sliding
00:12Reliable
00:13In the danger zone
00:17Quiring
00:18Works the hill
00:23And cutting loose
00:27With auto
00:2943 metric ton of wood on that truck
00:35Anyone coming down from the summit there
00:38Tell me what the roads are like
00:39On BC's Coquihalla Highway
00:42If it's all just flowing, it'll be fine
00:44The first snows of winter
00:47But when you get somebody that's like really nervous, then yeah
00:51Have drivers on edge
00:53It's gonna be an accident waiting to happen
00:59Those road temperatures from the summit all the way north are like minus two, minus three
01:03Patrolling the hill
01:05So it will be heavy, wet snow
01:07Highways maintenance supervisor, Curtis Brown
01:11Prepares for a month-long fight
01:14Once the snow picks up, don't be afraid to use the sand with the larger crushed rock in it
01:20We've focused closely on being proactive about storms
01:24Making sure that our key pieces of equipment are out there ready
01:27After last year's mild winter
01:30Tonight we're forecasted to get up to 25 centimeters of snowfall
01:36This year is expected to be different
01:39Experts are predicting we will need particularly warm jackets this winter
01:44Because it will likely be colder and wetter than usual
01:48The most common reason why the highway closes is due to blockages
01:54Now I'm here
01:55Okay, he's at Zodkis
01:56Sometimes your issues will snowball
01:58And it could turn into a nine-hour closure
02:01You need tow trucks to pull trucks out of the way
02:05At the Zodkis brake check
02:09Veteran tow operator Al Quiring armors up
02:12Come on, baby
02:15Can't control Mother Nature on the Coquihalla, that's for sure
02:19Their clan is changing
02:20And it seems like we're getting a lot of snow developing in a very short period of time
02:26Al, how are you doing?
02:28Good
02:29How's it going?
02:30I think it's going to be kind of a messy night
02:33We haven't had a West Coast storm for a while
02:35Yeah
02:36Looks like it's building anyways
02:38Each person's got a spot to keep, you know, an eye on their corner of the chaos
02:43Well, I'll let you get ready
02:45Thanks, Al
02:45You bet
02:46Appreciate it
02:51Alright, here we go
02:58On the highway to Cam, that's on the Coquihalla
03:02It's pretty rough
03:05125 kilometers north
03:07I got a feeling this is going to be a long night
03:11In Merritt, reliable towing is ready for the cold snap
03:16We have geared up for winter
03:18I think we have enough talented people to work the trucks that we have
03:24I anticipate that it's going to be a very busy winter
03:28Blasting off from the yard
03:30A 35-ton record
03:32Go ahead up Highway 5 here
03:35Piloted by operator John Donz
03:38Sometimes it's not just the snow
03:40Sometimes it's cold enough
03:42The road's icy
03:43This is supposed to be the first major snowfall of the season
03:47And the roads are starting to cool down
03:49You guys will drive the speeds as if it's still summer
03:53And it's not
03:58That's a long line up
03:5946 kilometers north of town
04:07A semi-trailer headlong down a bank
04:14Dangerously budding into the highway
04:20Arriving on scene
04:23John gets his first look
04:27All righty
04:29The trailer is sticking out in the granny lane a little bit
04:32The wreck is the second of two crashes on the same stretch
04:37There was a response from EMS on the first accident
04:43And this guy came over the hill just a little bit too fast
04:46Actually hit the back end of the ambulance
04:49Put himself around and ended up jackknifed into the ditch
04:54One accident just kind of caused a bit of a chain reaction
05:00But before traffic can safely resume
05:03It's pretty paved into the front bank here
05:06John must clear his wreck
05:08Hanging over the road
05:11Trying to get this done as fast as possible
05:13To avoid causing any other wrecks on the same hill
05:41I just want to know what the coke's like
05:43There is some sort of blockage
05:4730 minutes north of Merritt
05:49Single lane
05:50A semi partially blocking the road
05:54He was going a little fast for the conditions
05:57Has reliable towing
05:59He hit his brakes a little too hard and he lost control
06:02In the danger zone
06:04When you're in a spot like this
06:05You definitely got to be watching what you're doing
06:07You got to crawl through on the hammer lane side only
06:13Cresting a hill into an active crash scene
06:16The driver was unable to stop
06:21Colliding with an ambulance
06:24Before sweeping down the bank
06:30Joining the scene with a reliable 50 ton
06:33Slinging on the back there by underwent
06:35Merit manager Lane Perry
06:38We'll have you yet that way
06:40While I pull the truck up this way
06:42It's definitely going to be a challenge
06:44To get it up onto the road
06:46And at the same time sharing the road
06:51Idiots man
06:53Drivers in the live lane
06:54I know man
06:56There's going to be another one here
06:58Aren't heeding the conditions
07:00A little slicky poo
07:02Everything's pretty slicked up from the wind
07:06You just want to make sure you keep your head on the swivel
07:10These are not working good
07:15No one's picking it up, babe
07:18125 kilometers south
07:19What firings are they doing this thing?
07:22On Snowshed Hill
07:25Al discovers a flatbed B train
07:28In a bad spot
07:30I've encountered a few different things
07:32On the Snowshed Hill
07:34Time out in the middle of the highway, yeah
07:37He's just sitting in his truck
07:39Waiting for the snow to stop
07:41Rockslide Sasquatch attacks
07:43Could be anything that closes the road, really
07:46I wouldn't sleep anywhere near up here
07:48Even a guy having a nap in the middle of it
07:56It's kind of odd that somebody would just drive up that Smasher Hill
08:00And decide not only just to kind of block lanes
08:03But hop in the butt and go to sleep too
08:06It's time to go
08:07Top of the day
08:09Use that rest area back at the last town
08:13And try again tomorrow
08:14We're gonna go up the hill, put it in gear
08:19I'm hooked on already
08:21I'm fast
08:22We're ready to go
08:24First, second, third, fourth
08:27Pick up speed
08:29We're not stopping anywhere
08:31Till we're at the top of the hill
08:33Follow me
08:36Let's roll
08:47Come on
08:54Despite the rude awakening
08:56Come on, baby
08:58Al understands the grind of winter trucking
09:01They want to go to sleep
09:03Because they've been driving like this
09:04Having a hard time
09:07Staying in a warm sleeper berth
09:10Cuddled up in a sleeping bag
09:11Is way better than laying under a dripping truck
09:13Putting chains on by far
09:15But
09:16They just can't do that there
09:24Cut loose at the top
09:26The driver
09:28Oh
09:29I wouldn't pull off anywhere here
09:31Remains eager for a place to snooze
09:35Don't sleep up here
09:36Because anywhere you pull off here
09:38There's going to be a foot and a half of snooze
09:40So
09:40If you wake up in the morning
09:42We might not see you
09:43With a bit of practical advice
09:46I'll get out of your way
09:47So you can go
09:49Al sends him on his way
09:51It's not like a hotel hospitality or anything
09:53But it's looking after the motoring public
09:57Right on
09:58Well, you drive safe driver
10:00Have a good day
10:05We got an accident here
10:06It's lower down
10:08An hour north
10:11John and Lane
10:12Rigged to a trailer
10:14One on either side
10:16Sticking out onto the highway
10:19If you want to back right up
10:23I'm always concerned
10:24That we're working next to a live lane
10:27I'm more worried about the people
10:29That are coming down the road
10:31And could potentially crash into us
10:33Good
10:37With Lane's 50 ton
10:39Acting as an anchor on the rear
10:43John's 35 ton
10:44Will drag the trailer up first
10:47Before swinging the tractor around
10:50Onto the shoulder
10:55Oh, Grady
10:58Now for the fun part
11:01Hopefully it'll come up better this way
11:03Yeah
11:04John starts pulling on the rear of the tractor
11:11Woohoo
11:11But with his wrecker in the air
11:16How far out am I there?
11:19He risks swinging into moving traffic
11:23Borderline, if we spin again
11:24We'll have to change it
11:26That's right
11:28We got quite a bit of weight
11:29We're pulling
11:30The roadway's pretty slick at this point
11:35It doesn't help that the landing gear
11:37There's just being a big giant anchor right now for us
11:43Restricted by a live lane
11:45You can't turn the wrecker
11:48And take up the whole road
11:49To get full pulling power
11:51You're limited to the little bit of space you have
11:55They keep pulling the loaded semi
11:58It's coming
11:59It's just plowing the bank on its way up
12:01But it's grounding out on the crest
12:06Okay, hold the weight
12:10So they pause to switch lines up
12:17We're going to have to change again
12:19So this one will end up being our truck line
12:22We need to get this one off the road
12:24For public safety and safety of us
12:26We don't want to be up on the road
12:30With a quick re-rig to the front of the tractor
12:36Okay, I'll tighten up
12:37They try again
12:48You're in great traffic
12:51What's going on up the road here?
12:53I'm leaving the block
12:57Watch yourself
12:58There's a record of work in there
13:01On the Coquihalla
13:03Reliables uphill tractor pull
13:09Is going sideways
13:11You're in great traffic
13:13I'm leaving the block
13:15Right in flight
13:16No worries
13:16We're battling here
13:17We've got to be quick
13:18So that traffic doesn't come down the hill
13:20And hit us
13:22Earlier tonight
13:23Unable to stop
13:24For an active crash scene
13:27A semi
13:28Hit an ambulance
13:30Then went down the bank
13:33Throw my stiff legs up quick
13:35Quick, quick
13:36Before this guy gets hit
13:38We all get hit
13:39Not wanting to become another casualty
13:42We don't want to get hit
13:44Pretty smooth
13:45No, I'm going to back up
13:47Hit
13:49John backs away
13:50From the active lane
14:05It's just a lot of snow
14:07And a lot of weight
14:08Coming up this
14:09It's pretty much a straight drop here
14:11Pulling up a 40 degree slope
14:14Yeah, I'd get a low line
14:16On this side
14:17Okay
14:17Just to pull the trailer down
14:20And that'll kind of lift up
14:22On the fifth wheel plate
14:23And give that tractor
14:24Some lift too
14:25Okay
14:25They need to counter
14:27The resistance
14:28On the front of the wreck
14:30Go for it
14:33With Lane's 50 ton
14:34Levering down
14:35On the rear
14:40Fighting us a little bit here
14:42On this side
14:47John gets the lift
14:48He needs on the tractor
14:51Cab gave a good twist
14:53Until he runs out of room
14:59That's okay, though
15:02Pull ahead
15:03Swing it the rest of the way
15:04And
15:04Okay
15:07A quick reposition
15:13Just watch yourself
15:14Lane
15:14I'm going to swing it up
15:18And the nose
15:21It's coming up
15:22Nice snow
15:25Finally comes around
15:27There we go
15:30Touching down
15:31With a flashy finish
15:34Battery cables
15:36The wreck
15:37Is back on the road
15:39Fun in a way
15:41And rewarding
15:42Because you get to see
15:43Everything that you've done
15:44At the end of the day
15:45For Lane and John
15:47Teamwork
15:48And quick thinking
15:50Okay, good on this side
15:51You got it
15:52Made for a safe
15:54And speedy recovery
15:55Alrighty, let's get this
15:57Freaking thing out of here
15:58And go home
15:59Thanks for coming out
16:00Awesome
16:01We got her out
16:02We're hooked up
16:03And it's time to get this thing
16:04Out of here
16:04And go home
16:05With Reliables Wreck
16:07Heading off the highway
16:08It's clear sailing
16:10The area is safe
16:12For the next recovery team
16:14That's the number one goal
16:16Is to keep the public safe
16:18Open the roads
16:19Keep the commodities flowing
16:20Oh, I love winter
16:39Coming on, driver
16:41400 kilometers northeast
16:44I'm here
16:45I want to hold up
16:46Here
16:46For Revelstoke
16:49Lies Reliables
16:50Revelstoke Division
16:52Ben's towing
16:53One of the things
16:54Of having several
16:55Different locations
16:56Throughout BC
16:57Is to be able to provide
16:58The best service we can
16:59To our customers
17:03Heading out
17:03From home base
17:05You can check on last too
17:07If anybody's seen
17:07A breakdown out there
17:09A 50 ton heavy
17:12Winter's here
17:14Launches onto the Trans Canada
17:16A little bit wet
17:17A little bit slushy
17:19With heavy operator
17:21Mike Topperchat
17:23It's a different kind of highway
17:25Than anywhere else
17:25A lot of people say
17:26That highways like the Coker
17:28You see a lot of destruction there
17:30A lot of chaos
17:31But
17:33There's nothing like
17:34What you see on this highway
17:36If you're prepared
17:37It can be a lot of fun
17:38If you're not prepared
17:39It can turn bad
17:40Very quickly
17:42Linking BC
17:43To the rest of Canada
17:44Through the Rockies
17:45And surrounding mountains
17:48Highway 1
17:49Via Revelstoke
17:50Is an essential trade route
17:52With no viable alternate
17:54In case of a shutdown
17:59All your groceries
18:00All your dry goods
18:01All your mail
18:01It's all running on this corridor
18:03Any of the nearest detours
18:04Add nearly 12 hours to your trip
18:06So this is the route
18:08And there's no other option
18:09When this road's closed
18:10Everything is stopped
18:12And it stays stopped
18:13Until we open it
18:16Oh yeah
18:17We're hitting snow already
18:18At 4.30am
18:20I see traffic coming
18:23So that means
18:23The road's not
18:24May not be entirely blocked
18:28Never mind
18:28It looks kind of blocked to me
18:33It's a bad situation
18:35A jackknifed semi
18:37Has the vital corridor
18:39Completely cut off
18:43This is an ASAP job
18:44This is as fast as we can get it done
18:46The better
18:50Loading with electronics
18:53Highway authorities are anxious
18:55To clear the growing backlog of motorists
18:58Let's go, let's go, let's go
19:01But a quick investigation
19:03Everything in the back end is done
19:05It's the axles tweaking everything
19:07Reveals the tractor
19:10Won't be an easy move
19:12Wouldn't be surprised
19:13If they rode it off
19:14This one in particular
19:14Has had a bit of a rough ride
19:16And it's twisted his axles out of shape
19:18I can get it straight out
19:19And lay it open real quick
19:20I'm just going to need to turn around
19:26Aiming his winches
19:29Can I borrow you
19:29Just pull that out
19:30And enlisting the help
19:32Of the highway's rep
19:33Just going to throw a chain
19:34On there quick
19:38Mike Riggs to the tow hook
19:46Hoping for a quick pull out
19:49Alright, let's rock and roll
19:52Unit driver
19:53Hop in
20:01We'll see what it looks like
20:02When it gets dull
20:03As at least get traffic flushed
20:05As he starts straightening
20:07The jackknife
20:09Oh, that's good
20:15Oh, bitch
20:17Mike hits a snag
20:21There's some damage somewhere
20:22In the truck to the air system
20:23In that situation
20:24It locks up all his brakes
20:25And with traffic building
20:27In both directions
20:29We're going to have to reinvent this
20:31A little bit
20:31Because it's not going to do
20:32What I want
20:32He needs to quickly
20:34Come up with a new plan
20:37Definitely not get by this one
20:41Drivers head west
20:42Into Revy
20:43It's all pumped up
20:44On Highway 1
20:45Near Revelstoke
20:46They got truck jacked
20:48Thanks
20:48A total traffic shutdown
20:54Has Mike from Ben's towing
20:56Pull it back in as you start
20:58Scrambling to get wheels rolling
21:00It's a matter of finding
21:02Where to put air
21:02And to release his brakes
21:03When trucks jackknife
21:05Typically
21:05When they make contact with the cab
21:07They'll break the cab
21:08Mounted components
21:09Oftentimes
21:10They can break the airlines
21:11And electrical lines
21:11That supply the trailer
21:16Yeah, I found it right there
21:18He discovers the problem
21:20Yeah, you broke an airline
21:22It's full of fuel
21:23And it's leaking
21:24But air
21:25Isn't the only thing
21:26Pouring out
21:28Of course it is
21:30No such thing
21:31As a simple jackknife
21:32Hey, I need a tractor
21:33Out east
21:34Right away, please
21:35And grab the plug-in
21:36Dike
21:36And bring it with you
21:37Mike puts an urgent call
21:39To home base
21:40For a repair kit
21:41ASAP, please
21:43If it's not contained
21:44That's going to eventually
21:44Leach down
21:45And into the river
21:46And into the watershed
21:47But with authorities
21:49Breathing down his neck
21:51What's the hold up?
21:53And the vital corridor
21:54Still blocked
21:57Okay, I'm going to see
21:58If I can muscle this thing out
21:59But I don't know
21:59If it's going to
22:00Co-operate with me
22:03Mike needs to get things moving
22:05We've got a lot of pressure
22:06On these morning wrecks
22:07All the trucks are gearing up
22:09For the day
22:10They're going to be
22:10Coming hot on us
22:11We need to have the road open
22:16In addition to a second winch line
22:18He runs an airline
22:20To the trailer
22:21We can release the brakes
22:22From the trailer
22:23And that'll help us out
22:28That's better
22:32Hitting the sticks
22:33There we go
22:35This time
22:36The wheels roll
22:38Our first goal
22:39Is to get the wreck
22:40Straightened out
22:43Get at least a lane open
22:44So we can get traffic flowing
22:45In some sense
22:48A few more feet
22:53And the westbound lane
22:55Is wide open
22:56That's about as good as that's going to get
23:03Traffic control
23:06Releases the waiting drivers
23:14We're just dealing with mop up stage here now
23:17It is what it is at this point
23:18There's going to be clean up
23:19No matter what you do
23:20As soon as you crash like that
23:21That's the end of it
23:22As day breaks
23:26Emergency supplies arrive
23:28To contain the spill
23:29Each side is 155 gallons
23:31So let's assume anywhere from 100 to 150 gallons leaked out
23:35We're going to put some floor dry down
23:37And Mike seals the leak on the fuel tank
23:41Contain the diesel as much as we can
23:48That's all we want
23:49Right there
23:49With the kingpin released
23:52Okay, pins pulled
23:53Landing gears down
23:55Got stuff
24:00The unit is disconnected
24:04Okay, we'll get these wound up
24:05We'll get you to turn this around
24:10We're going to hold here in a minute
24:11I got to get around the trailer
24:12And Liam's got to get up the road
24:13And turn around
24:17The axles have been twisted on the truck
24:19We can't tow it
24:20That's a combination to a safe spot
24:30Any better it'd be textbook
24:32Liam's going to tow the tractor into town
24:33Yeah, you're good to go
24:34And I'll see you back in the yard
24:35And I'm going to take the trailer
24:40Ninety minutes since Mike's arrival
24:43Okay, I'm going to clear out
24:44Going the other way
24:46The crucial leg through the Rockies
24:49Has been restored
24:51The roadways in BC
24:52Are a vital link to our overall economy in Canada
24:57So our job is to clear the road
24:59As quickly as possible
25:00Good times are good times, right?
25:02Highways is happy
25:03We got it done quick
25:04I'm happy that highways is happy
25:06Thank you for being out here
25:12There's supposed to be another storm rolling in
25:16400 kilometers southwest
25:19I can't get anybody awake around here
25:21So just send me that call
25:23At his yard in Hope
25:24Jamie Davis takes a much-needed break from the office
25:29I carry a lot on my shoulders
25:32I carry a lot on my shoulders
25:33I deal with the maintenance
25:34I dispatch the long-haul trucks
25:36I deal with accountants
25:38It does sometimes become quite a bit
25:43With another storm just hours away
25:46We go up the cork all the time
25:48There's always guys breaking down on the hill
25:51Jamie and his 25-ton wrecker, Lucy
25:55Have a short window
25:56A lot of snow on top
25:58But not down, you know, below
26:00To come to the aid of a valued customer
26:04It is actually brutally tough on this hill
26:07Today's environment is ultra-competitive
26:10For me, it was important always to have customers that you dealt with for a long time
26:15People that know you
26:16And they would phone you back
26:20Hey
26:21Well, what's this look like?
26:22I can move my fan or my fan belt all around
26:28I've heard that there's a
26:30There's a recall on the idlers
26:34He's going to take it into the shop
26:36So we can close her up
26:37And get it fixed properly
26:41Not roadside
26:44Despite the incoming storm
26:46These are my favorite little lift straps
26:48They're real good
26:50Securing the truck for transport
26:52Is not to be rushed
26:55We used to use chain all the time
26:56But when you put the chains on
26:58It's too hard to get them to be 100% tight
27:01They're always coming loose
27:02And I actually like this the best
27:06That'll get us up the hill
27:08It could be catastrophic
27:10If a truck wasn't tied off properly or came off
27:14I'm just going to get the tools
27:15Get ready to take the shaft out
27:16The final step is Jamie's least favorite
27:20Nobody likes pulling shafts
27:22But that's got an automatic transmission in it
27:24And you can't even pull that by feet
27:26They don't lubricate
27:27And you can do a lot of damage
27:30With motorists speeding by
27:32Just inches away
27:34Oh, watch out
27:38Okay, I'll get under there and start
27:39He crawls between the wheels
27:42Now blind to approaching drivers
27:46You know, you're doing 110 or 120
27:48Whatever it is
27:50And easy for somebody to just
27:52Not be paying attention
27:53For that one iota of the minute
27:55That's how those accidents happen a lot of times
27:58Slow down
28:03That storm's supposed to come in here a little bit
28:07On the coquihalla
28:10Oh
28:11It wouldn't make any sense for that guy to slow down at all, would it?
28:17Jamie hurries to detach a drive shaft
28:21It fucks me, man
28:22They don't get it
28:23And get out of harm's way
28:26Thus being on the hill
28:29They just don't get it
28:30You know, they call it the smasher for a reason
28:33You're going to move as quick as you can
28:35Efficiently as you can
28:37Pick that thing up
28:38Get the shaft out of it
28:39Air it up
28:39And let's get off the road
28:41We'll get my remote
28:43Oh, I got it right here
28:46Extending his wheel lift
28:47To roll the truck backward
28:49Perfect
28:51He aligns the drive shaft
28:53To remove the final bolt
28:57Oh, here we go
29:01Hate to pull those shafts
29:03It's freaking heavy
29:06Then chains it up
29:08For safe transport
29:10Okay, so we're good there
29:11The dirty work's done
29:13And now it's driving
29:15All right
29:16We're good to go
29:18With his rig secured
29:20Jamie's long-time customer
29:23All right
29:24Lifts off for safety
29:26Ahead of the storm
29:27We're going to pull him up to the top
29:29And find a safe place
29:30To separate the units
29:32And then we're going to
29:33Tow the truck down
29:34To the repair shop
29:36We really value
29:37That old-time
29:38Old-school relationship
29:40With a customer
29:41Who knows you
29:41He's going to phone you
29:42He's loyal to you
29:44That's a good feeling
29:46To have
29:46It really is
29:48There you go
29:48There's a guy with the plan
30:06How's the weather?
30:08500 kilometers north
30:11It's a shift in the weather
30:12I can't find that gear
30:16In Quesnel, B.C.
30:19It was just really icy last night
30:20An auto-towing 50-ton
30:23Lumbers down Highway 97
30:27It's really slippery
30:29With Rob Farber on duty
30:31The first little bit of winter driving
30:34Usually takes a couple snowfalls
30:36To feel comfortable
30:37Just a little bit too much speed
30:39Plans go sideways pretty fast
30:45We're just pulling up the accident scene now
30:47Just ahead
30:52A lumber bee train
30:54That lost the road
30:55Holy crap
30:59We've got to get that
31:00Off the highway
31:01It's down in front of the truck
31:03It's way behind the truck
31:05Some of his wood
31:06Really went a long ways
31:07Hey Rob!
31:09Joining the scene
31:10With his 12-ton
31:11Folding knuckle boom crane
31:14Today I'm the clean-up guy
31:15Odd job specialist
31:18Alan Frisby
31:20When he gets into predicaments
31:22It's me
31:23He'll give a call
31:24And we'll come out
31:25And help him out
31:25We'll start retrieving the lumber
31:27So Rob can get his truck full
31:28Out of there
31:30Wow
31:31There is like 43 metric ton
31:34Of wood on that truck
31:36But before they can get
31:37To the bee train
31:39We can't roll it over
31:40With the wood on it
31:42They'll have to release
31:43Its load of lumber
31:45So that we can
31:46Try to get at it
31:47A little bit better
31:48And roll the truck over
31:51In the world
31:52Of heavy recovery
31:53Let's watch your feet
31:54Cutting straps
31:57Has proven
32:00To be dangerous business
32:04That's it
32:05All over
32:08You got the sphincter tight
32:12Having cut his share
32:13Of straps over the years
32:16Rob has innovated
32:19I think it's a painter's stick
32:21And then it's got a hook system
32:23You can just hook the strap
32:25And it just slices to it
32:26So you can be far enough
32:28Away from it
32:28That it shouldn't get you
32:32A lot less chance
32:34Of ever getting hurt
32:35There he is
32:38He's just gonna come in
32:39Right there
32:40They now need to transfer
32:42The wood off site
32:44In the bin, yeah
32:46Okay
32:47Let's hit the ground, boys
32:50So they brought in
32:51Some extra hands
32:53Four o'clock staff
32:54It's gonna start snowing
32:55Pretty quickly
32:55They said
32:56To help beat the clock
32:58We have a snowstorm
32:59On our way
33:00So we've quickly
33:00Gotta get this done
33:01Because if we get a dump
33:03Of snow
33:04We'll have to
33:05Dig everything out
33:06In the morning
33:08We'll try to get
33:09As much done
33:09Before the snow comes
33:17500 km south
33:21Back down on the coke
33:28An afternoon dump
33:29Of wet snow
33:30There's a truck broke
33:32Down on the side of the road
33:33As a big rig
33:35Carrying sea cans
33:37Stranded
33:38It's icy
33:39Slushy on top
33:40Slippery
33:41I guess we have
33:42Too heavy load
33:43We lost traction
33:44Up the hill
33:44Chain gave up
33:46So we need
33:47A COVID truck
33:51Still working the hill
33:53Since last night's storm
33:56Al swoops in
33:58For the rescue
33:59Some of these trucks
34:00Only put chains
34:01On one axle
34:02And they get most
34:03Of the way up the hill
34:04They start spinning
34:05And sparks
34:08Smoke
34:08That smell
34:09Of burnt concrete
34:11There are a lot
34:12Of broken chains
34:14Back up a bit
34:15You get off those chains
34:17They've got it all
34:17Wrapped up in the wheels
34:19And they're like this
34:21You're alright
34:24Good chains
34:25They'll last you
34:26Cheap chains
34:27They'll get you
34:27Through the scale
34:28But they won't
34:29Get you up the hill
34:31But with no chains
34:32On the driver's tires
34:33What do you got
34:35For weight?
34:35My load is about
34:36130,000 pounds
34:38It's heavy
34:39It's very heavy
34:41And 60 plus tons
34:43On the hook
34:46Yeah, and then
34:47As soon as you can
34:47Start shifting gears
34:49As soon as you can
34:51We want to go up the hill
34:53Four barrels open
35:00The tow will put
35:02Al's 50 ton heavy
35:03To the test
35:06Start picking up speed
35:10Breaking a truck up there
35:11During a snowstorm
35:13It's not good
35:14But when things let go
35:17You got no control
35:18Everything's gonna boom
35:23Heavy load here
35:24On Snowshed Hill
35:27Gotta pedal the clutch
35:29Pedal the throttle
35:30A super heavy tow
35:32Little bit of hopeful
35:33As Al pushing Big Green
35:36To its upper limit
35:38Pucker factor on the seat sometimes
35:40Hauling a container load
35:43In excess of 130,000 pounds
35:48One bad shift
35:49Could sap their momentum
35:52We're gonna actually
35:52Start picking up gears
35:53Because the two of us
35:55Are starting to work together
35:56To get efficient traction
35:58To make it up that hill
36:01Looks like you're getting
36:02That hurt
36:03You told me
36:03And you didn't hear
36:08Cruising through the final stretch
36:11Big Green
36:12As the B-train's driver
36:14To thank
36:17Did not like a pro
36:19People don't want to shift
36:20Because they think
36:21As soon as they shift
36:21They'll power up
36:22But I got
36:23That's what I was
36:24I need to do it for
36:26Yeah, that was awesome
36:28Jason Ryan
36:28He made it up
36:30That don't
36:31After 14 hours
36:33On the coke
36:33You bet
36:36Al's shift
36:37Is done
36:38You know
36:39Here's a helping hand
36:40Let's get to the top
36:41Of the hill
36:42Have yourself a safe trip
36:43To wherever you're going
36:44I've been doing that
36:45For years up there
36:46And that's what I think
36:48Will carry my family's business
36:49For more generations to come
36:55I want to be done by dark
36:56Because we got more snow coming
36:58Outside Quenelle
37:00Team Otto
37:01I don't know if that'll come apart
37:03Or not
37:03Here we are
37:04The caribou rotator
37:05And Alan Frisbee
37:07Okay
37:08Perfect
37:09We'll make it look beautiful
37:10Are making light work
37:12Of a heavy lumber offload
37:14Each bundle
37:16I'm going to guess
37:163,000 to 4,000 pounds
37:18At the most
37:19So I got about
37:196,000 pounds there
37:21Maybe eight
37:23Come out of there like nothing
37:24I hope
37:27My crane is a folding knuckle boom
37:29It's a 12 ton
37:30We get into areas
37:31That are a little more challenging
37:35Heads up
37:39Watch that side
37:40Don't slide on you
37:43It's a high value load
37:46It's all fur
37:47Premium wood
37:48That can still be salvaged
37:50It's really nice wood
37:53It should be worth about
37:54120,000 for
37:55The quality of wood
37:56That's on the truck today
38:01They're done
38:01Cool
38:04With enough lumber
38:06Out of the way
38:07The next challenge
38:09Is to land the wreck
38:10Roll it back onto
38:12Its wheels again
38:13And then
38:13He'll drag it away
38:14I'll rig up my lines
38:16And I'll
38:18Attach a couple chains
38:19Where am I
38:20Tagging on to
38:20With two lines
38:23From the 50 ton
38:24To the tractor
38:25And Alan's crane
38:27Rigged
38:28To the trailer's midpoint
38:29They'll roll the unit
38:31Onto its wheels
38:33Snow incoming
38:34But with the snowstorm
38:36About to hit
38:37Let's get her
38:39The team pushes
38:40To get the recovery
38:41Done fast
38:42Let's go
38:43I get a call
38:45For a road pudger
38:47We don't want to be
38:48Taking forever
38:50Because time is money
38:52Stopping traffic
38:54Rob moves in
38:57Are you confident
38:58You're not going to
38:59Hit your truck?
39:01As long as you don't
39:02Slide it
39:03We'll be good
39:05There's barely
39:06Nine feet
39:07Between the wreck
39:08And the crane truck
39:09It seems pretty tight
39:11Here
39:12Seems like it might be
39:13A little close to his truck
39:14When he rolls it over
39:14But he feels
39:16He's got lots of room
39:17And he's pretty comfortable
39:18With that
39:18With Alan on his handheld controls
39:21Are we ready?
39:22Rob
39:23Let me lead it
39:24Makes his move
39:26So that doesn't slam
39:28In the ground quite as hard
39:29It's gonna be
39:30Unplight
39:33Keep her going
39:34Come on
39:36Oh my
39:41Outside Pennell
39:42Oh crap
39:43Ola
39:44On highway 97
39:45It's gonna slam
39:47On the ground
39:47It's gonna be
39:48Unplight
39:49Otto's
39:50Lumber B train
39:51Rollover
39:52It's coming on
39:54It's coming on
39:54It's coming on
39:54It's coming on
39:54It's coming on
39:54It's coming on
39:54It's coming on
39:54It's coming on
39:58It's coming on
39:59Oh my
40:00Slams into place
40:01Yeah
40:02It was a good one
40:04All right
40:05It's done
40:06It was time to room
40:08Put it up on the road
40:09For ya
40:12With a final tug sideways
40:14The B train
40:16He can now
40:17Take it
40:17Is back
40:18On solid ground
40:20That's gonna turn around
40:21Now
40:22And hook onto it
40:26Rob plans to roll it
40:28Off the main drag
40:29To a safe pull out
40:31Yeah
40:32We're gonna haul it
40:32One piece
40:35But a mechanic
40:36On site
40:37Here at the bulkhead
40:39Oh
40:40Discovers
40:40Here at the valve
40:41A showstopper
40:44Got an air leak
40:45When the guy
40:47Rolled the trailer over
40:48He broke a valve
40:49If we can't fix
40:50His airline
40:51We're gonna have to
40:52Cage all five axles
40:53To release all the brakes
40:54Which will take forever
40:56I don't think I got a valve
40:58I go look
40:59In the tickle trunk
41:03We can be here a while
41:04If he doesn't have
41:04Other things to do
41:08Kind of part of life
41:09You try to keep
41:10Deep enough crap
41:11That you can fix junk
41:14I have a friend
41:15With an auto wrecker
41:15And I try to collect
41:16Junk from his place
41:17It's unreal
41:19How much he use it
41:48What are the chances of me
41:49Hey
41:50With the trailer's brakes
41:51Released
41:52Impressive to watch
41:53Rob and Alan
41:54Pull off
41:56Another win
41:57Everything went smooth
41:58Again working with Rob
41:59He's good at what he does
42:01El's always awesome to work with
42:03He relies on me
42:04I rely on him
42:07It's 85 feet for the truck
42:09And 38 feet for me
42:12There we go
42:14Headed for a safe space
42:15Off the highway
42:17Okay
42:17I'm leaving the scene now
42:20Rob is optimistic
42:22About auto's road ahead
42:26Today went really well
42:27There was a lot of pieces there
42:29To clean up
42:30And get moved off the road
42:32This winter auto
42:33We're hoping for a good snowfall
42:35And some cold weather
42:36And not to blow any trucks up
42:47Next time
42:48On highway through hell
42:51A loaded lumber wreck
42:53You actually can't see the truck
42:54Has auto
42:55What a mess man
42:57Grappling
42:59That's amazing
43:00A messy manure tanker
43:02Really starting to smell around here
43:04Takes a turn for Myr
43:06Let the festivities begin
43:08And the mystery man
43:10We've had a guy
43:11In front of the gate
43:12All day long
43:13At Jamie's door
