At the end of the trail, Horace Murphy gets drunk. When his trail boss, Bob Steele, tries to get him out of a card game, Murphy fires him. Rancher Karl Hackett kills Murphy for his bank roll, and frames Steele. After Steele is found guilty, he escapes with the help of sidekick Ernie Adams, and tries to prove Hackett killed his friend. Meanwhile, Hackett is feuding with Frank Larue and daughter Marion Weldon over water rights.

There isn't much in acrobatics in this Monogram western under the direction of Sam Newfield, but it moves along at a good clip, thanks to editor S. Roy Luby, and the print was in good shape. Miss Weldon is pretty and fresh-faced, but leads in B westerns were as high as she went; her roles in As were uncredited bits. She quit a couple of years later, and lived until 1989 and her 76th year.

Bob Steele heads up a well known western cast with co-star Marion Weldon and sidekick Ernie Adams. It all starts when Steele is framed for murdering his boss and best friend the Colonel (Horace Murphy). The sheriff (Ted Adams) seems to be in cahoots with the villain Wolf Hines (Karl Hackett) with Frank LaRue and his mine caught in the crossfire.
