    • Trivia
      Was filmed in Crested Butte, Colorado.
    • Goofs
      At the beginning of the movie when Johnny punches in, the time clock reads Tuesday 29. At the time of the movie release the 29th was a Tuesday in 1952, 1957 and 1963. The Baxter's car appears to be a 1970 Ford Torino Wagon meaning it couldn't be any of those years.
    • Quotes

      Jesse McCord: [after plunging through a snowbank into a mine tunnel] We dead?

      Johnny Baxter: I didn't want to be the first to mention it.

      Jesse McCord: Johnny, I hate to add to your troubles, but it's getting hotter.

      Johnny Baxter: [Whispered] It sure is.

      Jesse McCord: Must be that go-round I had with the widow Corzine. But heck, that was 20 years ago, and she started it.

    • Crazy credits

    Good clean old school Disney

    I'm sure I loved this as a kid, but it felt all new to me now. Nothing wrong with this movie at all, I'd recommend it to any family. Silly, low budget fun. Just not my cup of tea these days.
