Alf Nore White Pass Railroad Film - AAF 16435
This is a collection of 8mm films of the White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad that my father, Alf Nore, filmed in 1960 & 61. These films were too fragile to be digitalized by commercial means so they were donated to the University of Alaska Film Archives in the spring of 2019. The University had them carefully digitalized by a company in California and has given me copies to share. The video is a little shaky at times and there is no sound. I have copied a scene by scene description below. If you see any errors in them, please let me know. Enjoy! Keith

Canadian Rockies & Western Canada ROAD TRIP ULTIMATE GUIDE
Ultimate guide : 60 FREE must-see and must-do Canadian Rockies and Western Canada. Full list below
Hi guys,
Let’s follow us across the 60 must-see bucket list across Alberta, Canadian Rockies, Northern British Columbia, Yukon and Alaska. From the dry east Alberta curiosities, we went through the beautiful Banff and Jasper National Park and to Alaska. We challenged our legs in steep trail and met the Northern B.C big animals. Relaxed in hot springs and tasted rare dishes in Chateau Fairmont Lake Louise. Camped in exceptional spots near lake or river. Attached a personalized sign somewhere in Watson Lake’s Signpost Forest. Crossed the Alaskian border. Tested the robustness of our van onto the unpaved Top-of-the-world highway. Looked for gold in historic gold rush town. Have the chance to see the Northern Lights in Dawson City. Discovered the First Nations dances and song in Carcross. Stole sand from Carcross desert. Randomly, we met a French couple travelling like us with who we share some barbecue parties and fishing time. Please, check the bucket list below. Most of them are FREE. Comment and like the video.
