Plot
Cavalry officer Brett Halliday is facing a court-martial for treason over his defection to a Ute tribe that has been making raids on soldiers. After a bloody attack at the fort, survivors forge the Colorado River in boats, fleeing for their lives. They include the captain now in charge, Harper, his top lieutenant Ford and a hapless private, Livingston, along with Laura Evans, daughter of the previous commanding officer, who was killed in the raid.
Harper is intent on bringing Halliday to justice. Halliday explains to Laura that her father had been ruthlessly hostile and violent toward the Ute, and responsible for much of the carnage that followed. Lt. Ford, jealous of Laura's growing interest in Halliday, tells her he is married to a "squaw," but Halliday explains that his wife was killed by her father's men.
Ford falls to his death from a cliff while fighting with Halliday, who helps the others fend off another attack. A grateful Capt. Harper can't bring himself to set Halliday free, but hints that he will not interfere if Halliday should escape. Laura hopes to see him again as Halliday gets away.
