These films have not been viewed by the Mountaineers History Committee. They have been identified by looking at the film can, reel, or leader.

Notes On Film Size: The size of each film is recorded like this: "16mm x 1000ft" or "16mm x 10in". The first part (16mm) is the film gauge. The second part is the footage in feet (if known) or the diameter of film on a reel in inches (including core). If the film is not on a reel (which typically means it is wound tighter and has more footage than a similarly sized reel) it is annotated "no reel".
