Highway to the arctic: Canada’s Ice Roads
45'

Every winter, ice roads are built across hundreds of miles in Canada's far north, connecting frozen rivers and lakes, and stretching up to the very northern tip of the country by the Arctic Ocean.

For the people living in secluded villages these “ice highways” are vital for the transport of goods for the entire year. The ice roads make it easier to reach remote hunting grounds and are at times, the meeting point for fairs that celebrate life and culture. Canada’s Ice Roads connects these people to each other.
