MAKING AMENDS

Dan Haggerty, the burly onetime Grizzly Adams who got a 90-day suspended jail sentence in 1985 for selling cocaine, continues to put his career back together: In September, Action International Pics plans to release “Night Wars,” an action-adventure with Haggerty as a Vietnam vet counseling two other vets suffering combat nightmares.

The actor, now 45, starred in the Canadian film “Abducted” last year. Later this month, he travels to parts of Canada, Utah and Wyoming to direct and star in the low-budget “Eagle’s Child,” a wilderness adventure (he co-wrote with Larry Bishoff) about a father and son surviving perilous adventures in the 1880s.

Then there’s Dan Haggerty’s 100 Percent Natural Cajun Barbeque Sauce in some supermarkets, with 10% of the profits earmarked to help “victims of drug abuse and abused children,” according to Haggerty.

He says he’s free of drugs and has given hundreds of hours of community service in the past year to help drug addicts and battered and retarded children.

“I’ve stumbled, but I’ve met my problems head on,” he told us. “Now I’m trying to give something back to the system. The system’s been good to me.”
