Bear Swenson and Jerry Dusdal
Here’s some more information about Bear Swenson and Jerry Dusdal, who are new to Season 2 of Ice Road Truckers. We also recently profiled Eric Dufresne, in case you missed it.
Bear Swenson
Bear Swenson was a lumberjack who got his nickname due to the resemblance to Smokey the Bear. Although he is critical when it comes to mistakes made by rookies, he is always looking out for them. Like Eric, he has a strong sense of humor, and his approachable personality gave him the chance to earn the local respect. He has two children and seven grandchildren, and he does the ice road trucking for the money, motivated by the fact that he has to take care of his family.
Jerry Dusdal
Jerry Dusdal is “the man behind the truck”, the field supervisor. His main responsibility is to make sure that the truckers work under safe conditions, especially in the Arctic area, where everything is much more difficult to do.
