Cliffhanger (1993)

Plot: Unable to come to terms with the untimely and cruel death of a dear friend--and above all--unwilling to forgive himself for the hideous accident responsible for his loss, the highly-experienced mountain climber, Gabriel Walker, is overcome with grief and guilt. Eight months after the tragic incident, Gabe still wants to quit; however, a despairing distress call from a stranded team of climbers will force him to return to action, unaware that a gang of ruthless criminals is behind the phoney call for help. Armed to the teeth and equipped with high-end tracking devices, the dangerous outlaws need Walker's expertise to track down somewhere in the vast and snow-capped mountainside, three scattered suitcases crammed with millions of dollars. Will Walker make it out alive, especially now that the unquiet ghosts of the past threaten to resurface?

Alternative Plot: Outdoor thriller in which a former mountain rescuer is pitted against a group of criminals who have lost their $100 million stash during a plane crash in the Rocky Mountains. After being persuaded to help rescue a group of stranded hikers, he discovers that they are in fact a gang of violent robbers who need help to locate their missing loot.
