In ''To Build a Fire'' a man is traveling in the Yukon in very cold weather with a dog. He attempts to build a fire multiple times but fails each time as the cold and snow snuff it out.

When he predicts that he was nearing death as the cold got worse, he decided to start running in order to get blood circulating around his body but it is too cold and he is too tired so his endurance fails him and he stops running. He now accepts that his death and meets it with perceived dignity by deciding to fall asleep and die from there.
