00:30There is a fortune at stake as two rival lumber camps wage a ruthless war for possession of the giants of the forest.
00:43On one side is Joe Barton, the blonde bombshell of the Northwoods, leader of the Timberlands' toughest gang of huskies.
00:50Fighting against her is the ruler of an all-powerful lumber trust.
00:54Into this battle drops an international playboy, seeking adventure and romance.
00:58He's a new kind of problem for this swashbuckling little savage.
01:02Let's see how she handles him.
01:04I didn't mean to be fresh, really.
01:05But honestly, I haven't had any to eat for a couple of days and I'm starving.
01:08Oh, boy. What a fuselage.
01:12You think that's funny, don't you?
01:14I think it's terrific.
01:16Now, what is it you want?
01:18I want a fair cut on those government logs.
01:20Those logs are mine. They're going downriver to tidewater and you nor anybody else is going to collect one red cent.
01:26You better get going before these boys get impatient.

01:30Come on out with me and float around with the top hats for a while.
01:33Do you good.
01:34Why don't you get smart before it's too late?
01:35And do what?
01:36Sell out your business to the Russets who know what it's all about.
01:39I took over my father's job.
01:41He wasn't a quitter and neither am I.
01:44We've done what she wanted us to do, now we'll make her do what we want.
01:47And if she don't, we'll shove the cableway skinner off the setting, wreck the train and fire the brush. That's what we'll do.
01:54There he is.
01:56Steve, look out.
02:00It's smashing, crashing entertainment. Romance with George Brent and Beverly Roberts. Drama with Barton McClain, Alan Hale and Robert Barrett. Comedy with Elle Brandel and Roscoe Waits. And scenes of spectacular action filmed in the breathtaking grandeur of the big tree country.
