Summary:

Bill Tyler (Heston) and Henry Frapp (Keith) are mountain men, the roughest, toughest pair of fur trappers who ever trekked across the North American wilderness. But while masters in the fields of shooting, drinking, and cussing, their greatest talents lie in outrunning hostile Indians--an activity that takes up most of their time. So when they learn that their latest traveling companion, Running Moon (Raicmo), is really Blackfoot Chief Heavy Eagle's (Macht) runaway squaw, Bill and Henry must decide what's more important: the girl or their scalps. Set around 1838 when the beaver market was declining, the film depicts the time shortly before the end of the harsh and beautiful era of the Mountain Man.
