Nelson,

Did you know there is another movie of one of Maclean's stories?

The Ranger, the cook and a hole in the sky was made into a TV movie back in the 1990's, starring Sam Elliot is USFS Ranger Bill Bell. I was fortunate enough to find a VHS copy:

It's a nice story, nothing earth-shattering. The town scenes were filmed at the set in Mape Ridge, BC where the TV show Bordertown was filmed.

I love Maclean's writing; his father reminds me of my grandmother in terms of the Scottish Presbyterian ethos.
