James Fitzpatrick sends the Technicolor north under the command of cameraman William Snyder so Fitzpatrick can go into the studio. He seems to have trouble saying "Northwest", but he rhapsodizes over fish, particularly the ones who get through the dams on the Columbia River. Then it's on to peacocks and bears fighting in the woods, at which he raises his voice.
At times it's hard to tell whether I was looking at, say Crater Lake or a painting of it, with the camera slowly panning across its serene waters.
Oregon seems to be severely underpopulated. We se one guy who's in charge of counting fish, and another one who seems to be in charge of watching Crater Lake lest it run away. The copy of this Traveltalks that plays on TCM is in pretty good shape and if you don't care whether you're actually looking at Crater Lake, Oregon is quite pretty.
