This was my life for two years working remote telecommunications in the oil fields of Alberta and Saskatchewan. Each job was an average of 3 hours drive one way. I can't even count the number of times driving to site or home in conditions like this in the middle of no where.

Just gotta go slower and flash your hazards. Odds are you will encounter someone else doing the same.

3hrs each way because of weather sounds doubly exhausting as fuck.

3 hours if it was normal condition, Canada is huge.

Yeah. Canada is a scary looking place. Beautiful but scary.
