Waterwalker was Bill Masons full length feature film and his last. Even today almost forty years later it offers a great message and is well worth watching.You can get it (free live stream) from the National Film Boards website or buy the DVD. Many of the paintings Bill shows in the Film are described in his book Canoescapes.
No major theatre chain picked up the rights to show Waterwalker so Bill booked the Bytown theatre in Ottawa for its Premiere. We at Trailhead helped promote the premiere by printing posters and selling the tickets and organizing a canoe parade down the Rideau and over to the Bytown. This was pre social media when you had to try hard to get into the local newspapers.
The Premiere was sold out and a great success. At the after hours party we presented Bill with a book of top Maps of all his favourite rivers.He created a 28″x22″ poster thank you card which we framed.
