It's Montana's Glacier National Park. At the train station, Blackfeet Indians welcome the newly arrived tourists. James A. FitzPatrick gets initiated into the tribe and given the name Chief Globewalker. At Swiftcurrent Lake, they visit Many Glacier Hotel and start feeding the ground squirrels. They visit more lakes and more hotels and see more mountains. Then they cross the border to Canada's Waterton Lakes.
I always say that old nature films do have one drawback. Nature don't usually change. The big change recently are glaciers. I'm sure that any glaciers seen here are all gone now. So that's the big time capsule aspect. The other time capsule is the focus on the close relationship between United States and Canada. It probably has a lot to do with the world war raging outside of the country. There is always a spin around that issue.
