8:58 yes it was the Silver Falls road before mid late 70's...went right down to 102 at the video start.

6:24 on the east side(right) in the ditch that tie I showed you back a few years.

@kam75 3 месяца назад

right at 11:49 a now over grown narrow road went west and crossed 102 and I think ended up at the railway lines and old Kam train station by the river.

starting at 3:17 the Silver Falls road started here ran there until 102 was upgraded back in mid 70's and the road changed to its present intersection at 102.

That's what I thought I saw on the old maps.

13:34 this cut was blasted wider and newer road bed done just a few years ago.

I remember seeing some photos of that.

Not sure if you are using a mic on an arm, but to cut the wind noise try using a piece of foam rubber. If you have a AV guy at your school ask him or he may be able to tell you of a proper product.

I don't use an external mic. They don't necessarily play nice with GoPro cameras and I can't imagine having another piece of equipment strapped to me. The camera on the helmet can be awkward as it is. Usually the GoPro is pretty good at mitigating the wind noise, but not always perfect.

I thought there was an Old World War II prison camp up around there somewhere?

Yes, there were a few in the area, but I'm pretty sure none were along this rail line. Most were west of Thunder Bay, mostly notably the one at Neys. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neys_Provincial_Park
