After weeks of planning, crew lifts truck from frozen river in 'nerve-wracking' job


Article content
After weeks of planning and preparation, a three-man crew lifted thousands of kilograms of ice and truck from the Des Rocher River before the river ice melted.
The truck fell through the ice on Jan. 2 roughly 80 metres off the Fort Chipewyan winter road. The driver was not injured.

But hoisting the truck was no easy task for the crew. It took roughly three weeks to stabilize the surrounding ice so the crew could work safely. A warmer winter meant the ice was not strong enough to support the cranes or heavy machinery usually used for these jobs.

RMWB Temporarily Closes Fort Chipewyan Winter Road


By Jaryn Vecchio
The Fort Chipewyan Winter Road is temporarily closing due to the current warm weather.
The unusually high temperatures are causing ice to melt, specifically around the east crossing over the Des Rocher River.
The RMWB says reopening the road is their top priority, however, they don’t have a timeline on when they can do so safely.
When it does reopen, only essential travel should be on the road.
This includes vehicles delivering supplies to the rural hamlet and those traveling to access essential services.
