As some of you already know, we’ve been digging deep into our storage and digitizing 16mm photolog footage from 1966 to give you our BC Road Trip Time Machine video series. (“Photologs” were created 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.)
So far, we have travelled over the Malahat, along Highway 1 and the original Port Mann Bridge and along highway 97 from Osoyoos to Vernon and between Prince George to Dawson Creek in our time machine travels. Today we are very excited to share the next installment of our series with you - Highway 99 from Horseshoe Bay to Squamish.
Looking back on these old reels reveals a lot more than just pavement condition. The camera installed onto the dash of a car and driven over 9,000 km of BC highways captured some incredible glimpses of our province during the heyday that was the 60’s. So sit back, relax and watch a world long gone by in the rear view mirror.

Here's the footage synchronized with the same views from 2016 and 2008: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--Q1uFowzqUQ.html

Now what you should do is make a new video for 2016 doing the same route to celebrate 50 years later and the improvements. P.S. I live in Squamish and yes thank you for the improvements!!

This is gold! And my first thought was that I'd like to do exactly that; superimpose this video into one of my dashcam videos. I'll plan to do this and let you know when/if I have something, and with your permission, perhaps I can share further.

We used to have picnics at the bluff by Deeks Creek bridge (can't stop there now) and Brownie Lake (Now Murrin Lake). The last bit of the film heading to Alice lake also brought back fond memories. Did it stop there or is there more after that? I would love to see more if there is more. There's a video on here of the drive to Whistler when the road was a single track. Worth checking out.

what I see is there were a lot more passing lanes back then. road looks pretty much the same pre olympics, but many more passing lanes, probably because people knew how to drive back then. right up until you hit Britannia Beach then it all gets really old school. Good video

So... I assembled a now and then comparison of this footage: 2016, 2008 and this 1966 reel. MinistryofTranBC, may I have your permission to share the result? Also, would you like me to include any copyright or attribution messages in the video (in addition to credit in the description.
