great people eskimo ...i salute..
Mrs helmrik and your husband have my respect and salute. You are truly pioneers
The Bold Journey series was produced in the 1940s and 1950s before widespread use of snowmobiles that made Eskimo life much easier, although hand saws and wood tools and rifles are seen in this video. Fortunate for all that these historic movies were preserved.
Eskimo's have always obtained goods they cannot make themselfs, for thousands of years of trade.....hand saws and wood tools and rifles have been bought/traded by them since ships first showed up to sell/trade goods. 200 years +. Progressive, adaptive people preserve their cultures much more than isolationists.
Thank you for great videos. Mighty fine indeed.
Thanks so much it was very head work to make. Video that time God bless you all some in this world some all ready return to God

Smart people
I've read this couple's first book recounting their first canoe trip down the Yukon river system to the artic ocean. They built the canoe out of spruce and canvas. It was about 22 feet long. They lived pretty much on what they could kill and catch. Later this couple divorced. Bud continued his life up north as a bush pilot while his former wife, Connie made and edited films and wrote books about their artic adventures.
I met the Helmricks and they were "adopted" by the Woods, my grandparents lived at mouth of Itkilik River 8 miles from where the Helmricks settled. My mother would tell me stories of how the qavlunaaks stealed young men like me, I believed her when my older brother was taken along with an older sister. What mom didn't tell me was they were compelled to be sent to BIA schools.
They called themself Kuukpikmuit, the inuit name for colville river
see her book - "We live in Alaska" by Constance Helmericks
The woman speak so softly, just as woman should be, and she is so tough and strong. This kind of woman are extinct now. Today women are called snowflakes, you can injure then by speaking truth. And they don't sound or look like women anymore.
A lot of big, Fat, well fed dogs and happy kids, no starving there.
We used to, until they killed our sled dogs so we couldn’t travel.
Supposedly, there is a "Bold Journey" episode of 1956, where the actress Anna May Wong shows her film footage of her trip to China in 1936. ...I haven't found it yet.
There is a copy of that episode held at the UCLA film and television archive, but I'm not sure if it's ever screened publicly.
@@joshconeby Wow. Thank you for that information! I went to the UCLA film and television archive website and found it in a search. This episode of "Bold Journeys" was called "Native Land" -- apparently broadcast on February 14th, 1957. I went and found a contact page and expressed my desire that they exhibit it on their KZhead channel. (Apparently they have a DVD-R copy -- so it has been transferred to digital medium.) I don't really hope to get a positive answer from them ("Get lost! This is a non-circulating item! Only important researchers, professors, and celebrity filmmakers can look at!"). ...But, I gave it a try!
@@MrJm323 The footage of Wong in China is from a 1936 trip she took there. She made a short documentary called "My China Film" which was never shown to the public until its appearance, slightly edited as far as I understand, in that "Native Land" episode (it actually appeared on "I Search For Adventure" first, and was broadcast at least as early as December 20th, 1956 - the "Bold Journey" episode was essentially a re-run of that 1956 show). There is another film created from different footage of the same 1936 trip, meant to be used as part of a newsreel (but it may not have actually appeared in anything at the time), called "Anna May Wong Visits Shanghai, China", and that film can be found on KZhead. Unfortunately they're both silent, and only the "Bold Journey"/"I Search For Adventure" version includes Wong's commentary - that version also includes footage of her visit Beijing on the same trip. There are at least a few other copies of this floating around outside of UCLA - for example it was supposedly screened at Harvard in 2006, and at that screening the copy was identified as belonging to "a private collector" - but it's hard to say whether those will come to light in the same way as OP's video here.
What year was it filmed?
The Bold Journey TV series was produced during the 1940s and 50s.
The bear don't know what a man is, yes he does food
My mother was born in that area at Barter Island in1934.I can stomach this "eskimo"show with the adventerous"white man"just because its nice to get a glimpse into the world she was born into.Its more stomachable than say the horrid national film board of canada.
Your not so stomachable😎
oh please! if you turn the camera, that lady is under a heat lamp with a blow dryer... putting on her makeup. pleeeease
Ryan Shelby you are fired with your much an existential attitude :))
