Another color film from Coronet's later period, when it tried to get out of the shadow of just being a Social Guidance film maker and make more EB quality films. In this case, we have a focus on the Columbia river, which is a good exploration on the many paths the river takes. Although EB quality (No music and somewhat dull) it does has some nice cinematography and is a curio in the Coronet pantheon.
