- A Traveltalks entry visiting Jasper National Park in Alberta, Canada. After checking into Jasper Park Lodge on the shore of Beauvert Lake, scenic areas are explored such as Mount Edith Cavell, Athabasca River and Glacier, and Maligne Lake.
- In this excellent feature we see an expedition of explorers at Athabasca Landing, Canada, building scows for their trip into the north. We are next shown the loading of the cargo and are then taken down the Athabasca River. The natural gas at Pelican Rapids is a very unusual and interesting sight. The running of the Grand Rapids is filled with thrills. Dinner-time on the scows is indeed interesting and amusing. At Smith's Landing they portage the cargo and scows for sixteen miles over a road of logs. The running of the Cascades, and especially the Cornwall Cascade, is extremely exciting.
- Bruce joins Canadian Gwich'in Indian-Mountie Stephen Frost's family on the annual caribou hunt during the herd's spring migration over the Crow river, to calve in Alaska. Their tribal ways are in respectful harmony with nature. In total contrast, southern-more Alberta is world champion in tar sands, an extremely energy-consuming way to win oil from soiled soil, yet also of great economic value, also to local tribes.
