About this footage
This is a ski trip, filmed by a group of adults who spent as much time talking at the bottom of the lift as skiing down. Skiers in dark sweaters and wool caps work down open slopes under deep blue sky, one man in a red jacket cuts close to the camera, and others board an orange lift tower with single chairs while an attendant steadies them. A man in a long coat and hat skis too, and a few clips catch falls and small jumps.
Between runs the camera turns to people: three men smoking beside a station wagon outside a log building, a man in a fedora and a patterned Nordic sweater laughing on the street, a woman in a headscarf grinning after eating a handful of snow, friends sitting on a snow-covered rock. Getting there takes up its own stretch of film, with windshield views of snowbanks taller than the car, a divided highway through rocky canyons, and dry valleys under snow-capped peaks.
Good for stories on early ski resorts, winter road travel or 1961 ski clothing.
