these are fairly good movies:survival quest(1991?),robinson crousoe on mars(1964)has alot of survival gear shown and used,Bat-21 good E&E movie...vince g. 11B Inf..
 
Both been mentioned before and both are basically the same plot but

Emerald forest (Native south americans)
Dances with wolves (native americans)

are both excellent films (yes the plot is the same as pochohontis and Avatar and to some extent Fern Gully...)
 
Dougster you and me are on the same wavelength,the last trapper is a stunning film shot in the yukon.
Outstanding.
Soloman.

The director of this film Nicolas Vanier, has a long history of polar voyages behind him & has vast experience of these regions. He has made quite a few films of his travels & one in particular, back in the mid 90's where he crossed the canadian wilderness on horse back with his wife, his 2 year old daughter & his dog....Most of it was filmed by himself as they went along.& the voyage was to last a full year.
They settle by a lake, build a log cabin (stunning) & wait for the snow, to continue the journey by dog sled ( dogs & sled arrive by hydroplane) to finnish at Anchorage ( if I remember rightly).
Well worth seeing if you can get hold of it ( as are his other travel films if you like the great north)
It's called L'ENFANT DES NEIGES, roughly translated as.".child of the snows"
 
This thread has made quite the revival.

The Last Trapper is a great film.

Anyone got a link to "Tracker"

Tracker staring Ray winstone, set in New zealand just after the Boer war, the films ok but the scenery is stunning.OOPS didnt read the above post before posting, quite a bit of sitting round camp fire cooking and old school weapons clothing and kit,its basically a man hunt film,not up the with the greats,but like i say the scenery made up for it for me.

Glad to see the Last Trapper making an appearence here and getting rave reviews. I bought that a couple of weeks ago in a bargain bin in our local supermarket. Thought it looked a bit outdoorsy so I grabbed it in the hope it might be worth a watch. Seems I may have struck gold after all.

No, I haven't watched it yet, tonight's my DVD night so I may just put that on. It's that or Das Boot, the long version, all 3 hours and 26 mins of it. I missed some of the episodes when it was first shown on TV ages ago. Also got that in the bargain bin.
