I couldn't find this anywhere on TradGang and I thought it a nice gem to share with everyone. I just came across this video, haven't even finished watching all of it myself, but I couldn't wait to share it with you folks. If this is something you are already aware of then please forgive my hastiness, Im just excited to have found it.

  Alaskan Adventures 1926  

Like I said, I haven't finished the video yet (it's a bit long), so if it gets boring, forgive me. However, so far it looks like an adventure that I would be all for participating in. Anyone fancy a go?    

Great find! LOVE the old footage

I thought it was great when they fashioned a canoe out of the hide from the giant moose he had just killed. That must have been some trip.

Seen it before, but had to watch it again. Loved it both times!

Thanks!!!!

Awesome footage. What an adventure! Thanks for sharing.      

Thanks !  

I didn't want it to end.

Did anyone else forget several minutes into it that it didn't have sound? My imagination took over, filled in the color and added sound! Ill take my "over active" imagination over high def video any day of the week.

Great video...thanks!

Great video. I like the stalk on the moose and what an exciting bear hunt. thanks

My thoughts are these animals had not seen many, if not any, humans before.  Young fairly ran through sticks to get in range of the moose to shoot him.  Same with the Grizzly.

Makes our "adventures" look pretty tame!

Great film...Must have been hard to get some of those shots,like the Dall sheep shot. Think how large and cumbersome the camera equipment was. What an adventure!

Can't beat that with a stick! Very good.

True, but no less adventurous in my book. A grizz or a moose that's never seen you before can make you just a dead as one that has.

That was enjoyable.... I've subscribed to the site..... Thanks for sharing..... Terry

What a treat! Thanks.
