Bulldozers, snowploughs and snowmobiles help them along the earlier stages of the expedition; then pack-horses take over - and finally the men strike out alone. Up the sheer walls of the Columbia icefield they beat their way to the peaks at last. <11mn>Language:EnglishOriginal number:206B 0145 067Notes:Detailed holdings information: -
