Bless you for checking on that driver. Making sure he had food and water. I, too, am honored to be one of your subscribers. Congratulations to both of you!!!

It’s Ice Road Trucker Josh.

[@ChadRyan]

As I stare out my window in Victoria, BC watching the snow fall while Josh says we don't get snow :D

[@marysullivan3326]

without you Josh, there is plenty of Canada most people would never see!! Many thanks!!

[@nbrowser]

Now that is a true trucker...checking in on your fellow trucker to make sure he's alright and has supplies to get through the night...Josh sir, I respect you for that.

[@Shadeza1373]

Nice of you for making shore the trucker is alright 👌

[@jennwierda8650]

Hi Josh. Love the videos. Congratulations to you and Brit on the baby boy. I just wanted to let you know that I live in Vancouver BC and we do get snow. Not Manitoba snow, but we got about 30 cm today Feb 25th, 2023. Please keep the videos coming. Stay safe.

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

You are a good soul making sure the other trucker was okay. Then made sure he had food & was alright on the way back. it's an honor to be one of your subscribers. 🌴🌴I could almost feel the warmth 🌴🌴 60s this week in Independence, Va. Trying to blow some warmth your way. Spring's not far off now.🤗

[@FilmMission]

beautiful driving footage - I thought you would truck came the night at the dam :). great film josh

[@garykleeman7612]

I don;t know how much your paid, but it isn't enough. Your an amazing level headed, caring driver. You are what a friend on mine calls "Good People".

[@rogertrucker]

My heart goes out to that trucker in the ditch… winter sure makes things tense and unexpected, no matter how careful one is. Keep on trucking, ‘cause I didn’t! 🫤

[@sunnyray2048]

🍭SWEET🍭That was a “Mr Toads Wild Ride”!!!lol🚛Rubber Down, Metal Up Trucker Josh🚛💖👍🏼🙏🏼

[@JanesDough855]

I always call this "white knuckle driving". You're very kind to stop and ask that driver if he is Ok. Glad you made it to Gilliam and back safely.

[@benefactr1840]

That guy that was stuck sounded like what I think a Canadian sounds like!

[@Trucker_Josh]

Lol I think he was Russian or Ukrainian

[@AndySnap]

Wow, just wow.. ! Watching in the UK, where famously, everything struggles with 1 inch of snow and -10 temp, just a few days per year 😀 Just extraordinary to see your day at work...👏👏🙏

[@robertschaefer3223]

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays Trucker Josh from the swift completion of his appointed rounds.

[@SWAG31]

Old blue looking better then ever great video Josh keep up the great work!!

[@stromxtc2033]

That was a good argument against the telegram scammers the other day!

Hello Josh and Brit and of course thumbs UP!

Snow here on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia today.

Wow, Canadian's are so helpful

Josh...the warrior of road!!! to frozen world...here he goes!!! I hope you have extra blankets (laughs)

[@geoffreyruncieman9503]

Those roads look like a nightmare fair play josh lucky numbers

[@ifeanyiEzeugo]

Good morning my friend am from Nigeria I really love 💕 your channel trust me you alway motivate me doing this trucking industry because this is my career. Honestly I love you and I love the good job you do out there

[@Donald_Shaw]

Wow, Trucker Josh, your daydreams of Tiki bars and palm trees are so vivid even I can visualize them as well! I don't know about you, but I was white knuckling all the way when you driving those narrow snow covered roads. Really nice of you to care for a fellow truckdriver while he was stuck in a ditch. It sure was an exhausting day trucking with you, but glad you're safe and sound.

[@terryclark1520]

Josh is funny today 🤣 I like it🤣

[@auslander1270]

August 18th here today our winter here in QLD OZ. 28c and sunny. Another day in paradise :) Cant imagine the temps in this episode. I'm pretty sure even in the last ice age Queensland didn't get that cold.

[@firechaser21]

Winter will not let go

[@victoriahanke5086]

Whoa! You push through no matter what! You are so dependable. Those companies are lucky to have their products delivered by you. You truly care the cargo is safe. You have the very best intentions for their delivery. I would love to see you have your own company, maybe even teach new drivers! Anyway, be safe and love to Brit and Baby! ♥️🙋‍♀️🌞🙏🛻

[@hockeynutt9434]

This was an excellent vlog. What a day. And very pro of you to check on the driver, you are a good Man. Willing to provide your food and water.

[@georgedavidson1221]

The trees are not growing there. You are. Getting way north

Glad you got their safely and back out to the palm tree's of trucker Josh area

HGey Josh Its called the 3 georges dam my wife and I went down the Yangtzee on a cruise in 2018 and went throught he locks. absolutely amazing

[@EdgeOfNowhere2024]

Good job in continuously reminding people not to get scammed.

[@Stefan1968_Swe]

Love this vlogs that are 30-35 min long 🙏👍

[@MarshallLoveday]

I've seen the Hoover Dam, Josh. Great visitors center there, and a fantastic tour. The tour is a MUST-SEE....... Also did a short helicopter flight over the dam.

[@abathens]

Freedom°Units! Thank God we never went with the confusing metric system!

[@Trucker_Josh]

Lol. I know right. All those even numbers. Makes so much sense it's confusing!

[@vwager]

That jogger made me smile, I remember when I moved to DFW area seeing people out jogging in 100F (37C) weather thinking the same thing. I assume their nuts, you assume their dedicated... same thing.

[@trevorarthur1607]

That was an amazing trip awesome scenery. Love ya vids. Always worrying on those isolated roads like that. No snow out here but lots of isolated roads. That scenery must be unreal in real life. Take care n keep on truckin. Blessings.

[@johnmoses681]

I love my EV but listening to your diesel engine sing through the snow day and night is incredible. So much romance of the road will be lost if everything becomes electric.

[@GregM]

Thing is the entire province of Manitoba except the northern part where Josh was is under Extreme Cold warning as is Saskatchewan and Ontario. The cold weather though is keeping the blizzard connections in the midwest of the USA from coming up here.

[@avioncamper]

Trucker Josh, the Winter Warrior.... going to be 80f in NC tomorrow. Still have not had any snow. Stay Safe...

[@bensymington5550]

Love your videos awesome content

[@johndenissweeney6753]

Glad you made it back safe and sound and ‘Ole Blue still has all her teeth intact 🤣….man , got to feel sorry for that poor Lad that has to wait till the next day for a bigger towing truck too yank him out

Yeah That's Why i moved to Georgia from Canada Had enough of the Deep Freeze. Those Palm Trees & Blue Ocean Sure Remind me of My next Door Neighbor Flordia & the California Coast Lol

[@patrickburgmeier7902]

God bless The Pelican. Been 15 years or so since I have been there, but I remember it well. Used to stop there for gas. Was wondering if you were going to film through Grand Rapides Manitoba, and you did thank you Josh

[@thomasmcmanus6575]

WOW !!!

[@brianhoffies4846]

To bad all drivers aren't as courteous and safety minded as you are. You are appriciated. Stay safe out there.

[@sbennet1447]

Hi. Enjoyed your video. Whole different world up there. I live 20 miles west of Boston. No open land here !

[@germulqueen3002]

As a trucker, you'd DEFINITELY need to be prepared for any & all eventualities; ESPECIALLY in THOSE conditions!!! Good on you for checking on your fellow trucker (twice!!) Not very nice for him, being stranded there, waiting for help to tow his truck out of the ditch!!!

[@audramitchell9894]

Visualizing Palm trees ( that was a good one to cheer you up & a posative way to do it ) much appreciated

[@jmchinch]

Funny, in the US it’s the opposite…homes in the Northeast are way more expensive than down south

[@scottjonassen81]

I took up a whole load of foam up to Gilliam. Few weeks back. I’ve been on winter Road that’s is not one of em. Remote yes. It’s more all season. Try going norther to Lynn lake lol

[@Trucker_Josh]

Ol' Blue doesn't do the real winter roads. I like her to stay in one piece lol

[@scottjonassen81]

@@Trucker_Josh good call. I was nervous taking my truck to Gilliam knowing what the road to Lynn lake was like. But the nickels were too shiny

-26 in Red Deer on Feb 22 without the wind

[@derekhorlock1976]

Ahhh bush roads sometimes I enjoyed them because of no traffic and sometimes not so much especially if you didn't know the road and at night

[@MavrickGT]

I was in your area yesterday, down in altona picking up a set of harrows. Seen some of the wind energy farms that was cool, never been that close before.

[@ethanneps2503]

Gillam! My hometown 😀

[@garyfox33]

Gotta take tire chains along for those really remote roads.

[@carlthor91]

The chains are there, just not icy, to force their use.Max speed 25 mph with chains. Best wishes from the far North.

[@Trucker_Josh]

I always carry chains but never use them unless mandated

[@verlinswarey507]

That was freakin awesome!

[@1cdub86]

Gillam is where those two killers from B.C. ditched their vehicle.

[@lilpopscastaneda3392]

How is it going? Mr trucker Josh!👈

[@Trucker_Josh]

Doing great!!

[@ladyslipper4647]

Hey Josh, you are no whimp. Loved the palm trees and beach scene mixed in your video. That was really cool. Also loved the upbeat music you had in the bacground. I was wondering how much snow accumulated in your truck when I saw it snowing in your truck. Did you manage to keep "your" bumper on your truck, up in no mans land? All those drivers pulling over for you, realized you are Trucker Josh, "the King" and Lord Weasles dad. Felt so bad for that guy that was stuck, what a man. You truckers, are NOT, whimps. So glad your tires were not unbalanced with all that ice and hard snow in your wheels. I have never seen anything like that before. Happy you made it back to civilization before it got too dark driving on those lonely snowy roads. I can't believe what good time you made getting to good truck stop, with 7 minutes left. You are the man..... Take care! Love to you, Brit, Baby G, pups, and family .........

[@jeffwilken4578]

Great vlog Josh, awesome scenery past Thompson. Similar to driving across Labrador. 👍

[@frederickmoller]

Scary stuff Josh, it happened to me about 20 years ago driving from Timmins to Toronto in a major snow storm and in the night of course. The Highway between Haileybury and North Bay was closed unknowst to me, as I plowed through in my '89 Toyota 4x4 pick-up truck. I should have realized that something was wrong when there was no traffic and the snow was getting deeper, but I had to hit Pearson International Airport in the afternooon, anyways I made it to North Bay at a long 5 hour slow journey in 4x4 high and low ranges. I was so wasted that I got a motel room, I made arrangements for my cousin to pickup my wife at the airport as I knew that I couldn't make it....the kicker was that when I first arrived at North Bay and got my motel room I saw the snow plows were not far behind me! That sure peeved me off, as the highway from Haileybury was NOT closed at all, like they do nowadays with signs, barricades, and cop cars..what can I say?

My you know what was so tight watching that i dont know how you do it

[@donmacaskill5022]

On a positive note the black flies are a lot less trouble this time of the year.

As an US resident I could get on board converting to metric system of measurement but not for temperatures.

[@buckman840]

Hoover Dam is pretty impressive. Visited last summer but was only a quick tour and didn't go down inside it at all. Lake Mead is record low levels and the whole region is fighting over water rights.

Great job end wonderful vidéo thank you mr joch, 🐻👍👀

I guess that road to Gillam is much better in the winter, I was told one time if you want to take that road you better carry at least three spare tires

[@Trucker_Josh]

It is terrible in summer

[@nathanbrodeur]

Josh there are cell towers between Thompson and Gillam all the way to the lodge at the end of the road for future reference

[@Trucker_Josh]

No signal between Thompson and Split Lake

[@nathanbrodeur]

@@Trucker_Josh looks like that is the next spot for a new tower cause it had to be the spot where the two tower radius don’t touch

If you wanted to be educational you could have shown us how to throw a tantrum for losing a bumper getting stuck and seeing snow fall again and again and again. 😄😄😄😑

Josh would be better if Canada go Fahrenheit instead of Celsius same with gallons instead of liters kilometers to miles pls. So we don’t have to do this conversions?
