The Snow Walker. A pilot makes a forced landing in the Canadian Tundra with an Inuit girl. I've got it on DVD, but it's for US regions so I have to alter my finite DVD options every time.

If you want something more light-hearted how about Top Gear when they raced to the Magnetic North Pole?

Shakleton, cracking stuff.

I saw a werewolf drinking a Pina Colada at Trader Vic's
His hair was perfect

Ah well they've already been mentioned, but it would have to be Jeremiah Johnson or the Northwest Passage for me all the way .... even 'persuaded' the missus to watch Johnson the other week, and despite her protestations she loved it! And as for Northwest Passage I'm still just waiting for it to be released on region 2 DVD!!!

I almost forgot, perhaps one of the greatest 'unknown' outdoorsy films I've ever seen .... "Dersu Uzala" based on a true story about a Russian explorer who comes across a grizzled old hunter .... absolutely outstanding!!!!!!!!

One more for the list its a terrible version of a great book "Grey owl " with Pearce brosnan. As i said not a great film but superb location and scenery!

 

[Bravo4]

Eagerly awaiting the remake.

They are in town shooting this.

its not bushcrafty at all, but it is survival, unbelievable survival if im honest but the docu-fil 'touching the void' is pretty bloody good.
