Ice Road Truckers season 9 debuts Sunday

IRT-Season-9

A new season of the long-running “Ice Road Truckers” series following a rotating cast of far-northern haulers in competition on northern Canada’s and (occasionally) Alaska’s frozen roads makes its debut this Sunday on the History Channel at 9 p.m. EDT.

Ice ConvoyDavid Hollis of TruckersNews. com details the season’s adjustments from its last, with a cast that includes both new and familiar faces.

Season 9, Hollis notes, was filmed in Manitoba, Canada, and picks up where 8 left off in some ways, with (spoiler alert) Lisa Kelly accepting Darrell Ward’s offer to join a new venture.

The Polar Express team, too, is back in the thick of things after coming out on top in last year’s load competition. Read Hollis’ full story via this link, and catch Overdrive‘s one-on-one in-cab interview with Lisa Kelly from the 2013 Mid-America Trucking Show in the video below.
