Take a trip down memory lane as we travel BC Highway 97, 97A and 97B through the communities of Vernon, Monte Creek, Armstrong, Enderby, Grindrod and Salmon Arm.
These films come from the early days of the ministry’s “photolog” program. A photolog is made from a series of photographs, strung together into a movie (in this case, a 16mm reel). They were created by the ministry as a tool to capture road condition information across the province and give our engineers the ability to study a particular stretch of road without having to travel into the field. These original photologs were collected by rigging a camera onto the dash of a car which took still images every 80 feet or so and then running them all together as a single film. You can see them all on our KZitem channel.
Video Moving Too Quickly?
Did you know that we slow these videos down to about 25 percent of their original speed before we share them? Even then, they can move pretty quickly. If you blinked and missed something - don’t worry - we’ve done the leg work for you and collected a great selection of still images over on our Flickr channel, under BC Road Trip Time Machine.
Love the video but want to slow it down? Here's how. Click on the gear icon in the bottom right corner of the video screen. Click on the word "speed" and choose your desired speed. Voila! We find .5 to be the best speed for catching more of the details.
