The plot is inspired by true events, but often barely follows them. Hugh Glass was attacked by a grizzly in August 1823 in the Grand River area in north-northwest South Dakota, near the present town of Shadehill, south of Lemmon. There's even a Hugh Glass Recreation Area there. The area is slightly hilly, Great Plains prairie. That region is 2000-2500 feet above sea level, and the average temperatures in August vary from 55-100+ degrees. The closest place with anything resembling a mountain is an overland direct-line trek of 130-150 miles, in the Black Hills. August temperatures there range from 55-85 degrees, and at 7000-8000 feet the Black Hills are nothing like the mountains in the movie. The nearest mountains remotely like the movie's are the Bighorns in Wyoming, which are almost 300 miles away and still have August temperatures in the 55-85 degree range. At the time Glass was attacked there wasn't any snow, no one was close to freezing and no one was anywhere near terrain like that shown in the film. His trek ended at Fort Kiowa near Chamberlain, SD on the Missouri River, about 200 miles southeast of the attack site.
