I saw this on Showtime in the early 80s. I don't remember much, just that he fed a moose a pancake, and the movie ends wth him (presumably) dying in an avalanche. I though it might be "The Grey Fox," but it isn't. Anything?

I think the movie you are looking for is Death Hunt.

Death Hunt (1981) - IMDb (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082247/)

I will check it out. Thanks a bunch :)

Ah ha! Thanks to Cat1864, I found it. It is "Challenge to be Free." Cat, I read up on "Death Hunt" and it seemed similar, but then I found the right one. So, thanks!

I'm glad you found the one you were looking for.
