Bob Marshall Wilderness in the 1970's (old 8mm film)

I put this video together to showcase some old 8mm home movies that my parents had taken on their trips into "the Bob" in the 1970's. Also along on the trip was my grandparents. This was from a simpler time.

Great movie! Not much has changed once you leave the trailhead. It's the best place.

This video is seriously underrated. Thanks for bringing back the memories of watching these projector movies with my family in the 70s. I recently hiked about 75 miles all over the 'Bob' and fully appreciate what those horses and people went rhru! ❤

@@nancytrekker thanks for the comment, glad you liked it. The “Bob” is a little different place today than it was years ago. It’s become a very popular place and some of the wilderness experience is not the same, especially along the rivers but it is still an awesome place

I was a young adult during that time. Had That truck. Hunted and fished where now there’s millionaire’s houses. Loved the 8mm sound flapping. Brings back good old memories. Thanks!

@@virgilarnett9100 thanks for the comments, yeah it’s sad to see open land getting developed in a lot of areas.

Reminds me of watching old slides with my grandparents of my great grandfather and grandmother in the Bob. Thanks for sharing.

Those old movies are always fun to watch, it brings old great discussions with the family. Those pack horses and mules were doing a great job and mother and grandma fishing are priceless 👍🏻
