In 1869, a family leaves Salt Lake City on an arduous journey to establish a new outpost of their church. They cart all their belongings, leaving safety behind. The terrain is rough and unforgiving. When an encounter with dangerous men turns violent, their attempt to flee proves futile. Left with no other choice, they must prepare to defend themselves from an expected attack. Their pursuers hold the advantage because a party of mostly women and children are no match for outlaws in the wild country… unless they are.

Jake Remy leads a gang of outlaw cutthroats making their escape toward Mexico from a successful robbery. Barring their way is a river--crossable only by means of a ferry barge. The barge operator, Travis, refuses to be bullied into providing transport for the gang and escapes across river with most of the local populace--leaving Remy and his gang behind, desperately seeking a way across. A river-wide stand-off begins between the gang and the townspeople, both groups of which have left people on the wrong side of the river.


Martha Ballard
A cattle-vs.-sheepman feud loses Connie Dickason her fiance, but gains her his ranch, which she determines to run alone in opposition to Frank Ivey, "boss" of the valley, whom her father Ben wanted her to marry. She hires recovering alcoholic Dave Nash as foreman and a crew of Ivey's enemies. Ivey fights back with violence and destruction, but Dave is determined to counter him legally... a feeling not shared by his associates. Connie's boast that, as a woman, she doesn't need guns proves justified, but plenty of gunplay results.
