Johnny Hawks is a man who made his name fighting Indians. Returning to the West after the Civil War, he must now keep wronged Sioux warriors from attacking the Oregon-bound wagon train that he is leading and the nearby fort. Tensions between the two communities are building, with Indians trading gold to the whites for whiskey, and the white men trying to find the source of the Indians' "yellow iron."
