Anyone recognize this movie?
I just remember a few bits. A teenage boy is hiding in the mountains from two men who are trying to catch him. I believe he stole a microfilm or similar object from them. I remember the boy meets a crazy hermit who gives him some rope which he uses to make a zipline. Another scene is where his shoes wear out, and he makes some moccasins from some burlap the men chasing him left behind. In another scene he investigates the men's abandoned campsite, and eats from a can they left. Sound familiar to anyone here? I watched this several times on cable in the late 1980's.
