The mountain passes of Norway are some of the most dangerous roads in all of Europe.And when winter hits, the transport roads turn into treacherous bobsleigh tracks with trucks and cars skidding and sliding everywhere, blocking vital trade routes and in extreme cases, causing fatal accidents.But never fear, up and down Norway there are brigades of brave rescue workers, who work around the clock to keep the roads safe and open.It takes a special breed of men to pull off the perfect Ice Road Rescue...from a driver smuggling nappies (of all things!) out of Norway, to a truck in trouble full of fresh fish threatening to go bad – the rescue teams of Norway have their work cut out in this nail-biting series!
This time the heroes of the winter road are faced with extreme weather conditions. A powerful storm and record amounts of rain and snow create major challenges. During some of their toughest missions ever, Thord and Bjørn experience great danger, so they really have to trust each other. Jo Roger depends on last year's freshman, Stig, to become a leader, but is he ready for the task?
In southern Norway, Thord, Bjørn and the crew have to go out in the worst storm in ten years. They will save a trailer fully loaded with steel beams, which blew off in the strong wind. During the mission, Bjørn will teach Svein Arne a little more about gravity. In the north, Jo Roger sends out last year's freshman, Stig, on his first solo mission of the season.
Bjørn experiences great pressure after two trucks, which collided head-on, block an ambulance during an emergency. Thord works through the night to save a driver who is stuck in the car so that the valuable cargo can be delivered to the airport in time. In the north, Stig leads the recovery of a 30-tonne trailer that went through the guardrail and is dangerously close to a power pole.
Thord and Bjørn get the challenge of a lifetime when a fully loaded trailer ends up 40 meters off a cliff. The harsh conditions and the difficult salvage work make this the biggest challenge they have ever faced. At a ski resort, Svein Arne sets out on a solo mission to rescue a delivery van that got lost.
