After nine weeks and thousands of miles on roads that went from bad and warm to worse and warmer, Season X of “Ice Road Truckers” comes to a close tonight. The reality show airs on the History Channel at 10 p.m. Eastern and 9 p.m. Central.
This milestone 10th season was rocked by the death of longtime star Darrell Ward, the victim of a light plane crash in August.
It was also marked by the introduction of a new cast member, 22-year-old rookie driver Steph Custance.
When last we saw our “IRT”friends:
- Darrell Ward shared his truck with Mark Kohaykewych and they were joined in a four-truck convoy with Lisa Kelly, Todd Dewey and Steph Custance
- Alex Debogorsky had a long and demanding trip to Sachigo Lake
- Art Burke’s truck gave up the ghost just as he reached Sachigo Lake
