Della Falls and vicinity : aerial views
The item is three reels of film out-takes from 1971. It contains aerial footage of the interior of Vancouver Island, especially Della Falls and vicinity, shot from a helicopter. The first two reels, shot when snow was on the ground, feature dramatic high-angle shots of mountain peaks, sheer cliffs, river gorges, the falls, water draining from a mountain-top snow field, a large lake, and large log booms; there is also a sequence showing the helicopter sitting on the snow while a man walks nearby. The third reel covers the same ground, but with no snow visible, and with the helicopter flying considerably lower over the rivers, etc. This footage may be out-takes from footage shot for the BC government travelogue "Island Eden."
