MORE THAN JUST PARKS: AMBLER ROAD VIDEO CLIPS (9 clips)

Every clip here was recorded from the live Ambler Road investigation at morethanjustparks.com/ambler-road, at 30 frames a second, wide and tall. Free for editorial and advocacy use with the credit on screen while the clip plays and, online, a link to morethanjustparks.com/ambler-road. The satellite imagery under the maps belongs to Esri and its providers, so its credit stays on screen wherever a map does. No commercial licensing, no resale, no AI training. Every figure in a clip is the page's own, sourced on the page and in the README.

THE ROAD, ON THE MAP
  The road draws itself in (10 s)
    The 211-mile route draws west from the Dalton Highway to the Ambler Mining District, with a mile counter.

  2,932 water crossings (24 s)
    The camera follows the road west and every bridge and culvert lands as the road reaches it. The named rivers flash on the way, and it ends on the national preserve.

  The atlas, crossings by landowner (10 s)
    The interactive map with every layer on: right-of-way, gravel sites, access roads, airstrips, camps, claims, streams and land status. The crossings fill in from mile 0 to 211, colored by who owns the land under each one.

MORE FROM THE STORY
  A road is not a line (16 s)
    Down close to the 250-foot corridor, then out as the rest of the build appears: 137 access-road segments, the gravel mines, airstrips, camps, maintenance stations and towers, to 4,524 acres in all.

    Active state mining claims appear in the order they were staked, from 2 to 5,122, ending on the deposits the road exists to reach.
