Arriving in the west, they take up their work, but it proves anything but a success. On the brink of the Great Divide lives Stephen Ghent, an untamed and untrained man of the west, and on account of his manner is respected by the habitués of Miller's saloon and dance hall in the town, which he and two of his acquaintances in the persons of Pedro, a half-breed Mexican, and Dutch, a brutal type of the west, frequent. Polly tires of western life and jumps at the chance to take a trip to Frisco. Philip drives her down to the station that night. On an adjoining ranch a cowpuncher is seriously hurt and a boy is dispatched for Dr. Newbury. After cautioning Ruth to retire early, the doctor takes his leave. Stephen Ghent, Pedro, and Dutch are down in the town drinking. They afterward depart and start up the Coldwater Trail, which runs alongside of the Jordan home. As they pass the dimly lighted cabin, they see a woman standing in the doorway. Cautiously approaching the door, they enter the cabin and Ruth is overpowered. Dutch and Ghent fight a duel for her in which Dutch is killed. Pedro is bought off by Ghent with a string of nuggets, and Ruth belongs to him. In the man of the woods, Ruth recognizes the ideal man she desires for a helpmate. Ruth agrees to marry Ghent and live as his wife in name only until he has changed his character. Ghent agrees and they are married. Ghent then brings her to his cabin. As day by day goes by, Ruth begins to see other qualities in her husband and also to believe in him. One night, however, Ghent filled with a desire for her and goaded on by the whiskey that is in him breaks his promise. Ruth denounces him for his actions and tells him that not until he has purged himself through suffering will she ever believe in him again. She also tells him that she is going to earn enough money to buy back the string of nuggets from Pedro, with which he managed to get her into his power. Some time later Ruth departs for town to sell her last blanket. She has been weaving Navajo blankets in order to raise the necessary amount to buy back the nuggets. In the meantime the Jordans become disgusted and prepare to go back east. While waiting at the station they find Ruth, who has just completed the sale of her blanket. They see her start up the trail and follow her on foot. Ruth buys back the string of nuggets from Pedro, but she has not time to turn it over to Ghent upon her arrival at the cabin before she is overtaken by the others. It is her desire to have them believe she is happy and refuses to go back east with them. She introduces Ghent to them just as they are ready to catch the train. Ghent, unable to understand her changed attitude, starts to thank her. She tells him that circumstances forced her to act as she did, but that she is now able to buy back her freedom from him. Ghent is stunned, and at first refuses to let her go, but when she tells him of the life that is to come and that it is their duty to protect its happiness through a mother's love, he finally releases her from her promise, and Ruth, with the sense of newfound freedom, starts down the trail to overtake the others before it is too late. Ghent's attention as he looks after her is suddenly attracted to a bit of trembling earth on the mountainside. He realizes the great danger that Ruth is in and starts down the trail to rescue her. He is just in time and has thrown her to one side when the landslide comes upon him and carries him into the valley below. The rumbling sound has caused the others to look back. A reunion takes place over the injured Ghent. He is brought to the cabin, where he recovers under the care and attention of Dr. Newbury and Ruth. Ruth tells him that he has purged himself through his suffering and once more the couple start out in life upon a happier basis.

- Bob Carson, a New Englander, is betrothed to Mary Sanderson, the daughter of a neighboring farmer. Feeling that his opportunities for success in his native village are small, he tells her that he has decided to strike out for the great west, and promises to return and make her his wife just as soon as his bettered fortunes will permit him to. Months later, in Chicago, he is "broke" and out of work. The fruitless striving has almost completely broken the spirit of the young man and he feels as though he would like to end it all by taking his own life. But each time, the memory of the girl who is waiting for him, spurs him on to try again, and finally, remembering that as a boy he was interested in telegraphy, he determines to take up the work and make a success of it. Later, he is given an appointment as assistant operator at a small station in Colorado. But even then, many weary months are passed without his being able to feel that he can return to the girl in New England and marry her. The part of the state where Bob's station is situated is infested by a band of outlaws, led by the notorious "Black Jack," a man who once held a responsible position as telegraph operator and station agent. He and his band are greatly feared, and a reward of $5,000 is offered for him, dead or alive. One of the outlaws spends several days in getting information to the effect that a certain train is to carry a Wells-Fargo shipment of $300,000 in paper currency. "Black Jack" gets the message sent by this man and at once gives orders to part of his band to hold up the express train at a certain rocky pass. With another of the band he goes himself to the station, and leaving the man outside, on guard, he enters and commands Bob, who is on solitary night duty, to throw up his hands. At the point of a gun he forces him to send a message which will result in a head-on collision between the train which the bandits are to hold up and another passenger train from the east, it being the bandit's theory to cover up the robbery by a collision. Only a few seconds later, a call is heard coming over the wire. It is a message for Bob, himself, and comes from New England. The girl for whom he has worked and waited is dead. For a moment, the shock of the news stuns him completely. Then, realizing that he has lost everything that makes life worthwhile, he reaches out and starts to send a message, countermanding the order that will bring the two trains together. Divining his purpose, "Black Jack" covers his heart with the revolver and fires. Bob falls across the desk, and believing him dead, the outlaw places his revolver in Bob's hand, thinking to make it appear a case of suicide. As the outlaw turns toward the door, Bob slowly raises his head and sees the revolver. Half turning, he fires, and the bandit falls to the floor, dead. Two other railroad men, hearing the shot, rush up and dispose of the outlaw guarding the door, but when they enter the depot, they find Bob in a dying condition. He manages to tell them of the plot to wreck the trains, and one of them immediately sends a warning to hold back the train that would collide with the one the outlaws have robbed. Hardly has he seen this accomplished, when Bob again falls forward across the table. They lift him up, but they are too late. He has gone to join his sweetheart, "Across the Great Divide."

- This picture was taken along the route of the highest standard gauge railway in the world. A considerable part of the route of this line lies not only above the timber line but above the snow line as well. Huge valleys thousands of feet deep drift by; white clouds float placidly hundreds of feet beneath us, and roaring torrents, swollen by the melting snow, flash down the mountain sides like bright, eager swords. Not the least interesting of all is the equipment of this railroad of cloudland. Almost incredible grades and curves are successfully negotiated. The line frequently doubles back on the same mountain side above its old tracks, and at one place it is possible to jump off a passenger train, take a gentle stroll up the hill, and board the same train twenty minutes later five miles further along its course. In some parts of the line, as many as three engines are used to push the train up the terrific grade. Snow-sheds are placed at all critical points to avert accidents by avalanches.

- Artists of the Great Western Divide takes a look at three artists - Paul Buxman, Matthew Rangel, and John Spivey - and their creative response to the San Joaquin Valley of Central California. The film was a collaborative project with the Sequoia Riverlands Trust, a non-profit Central California land trust. Paul Buxman is a native to the San Joaquin Valley and has dedicated himself full-time to painting and farming since 1980. He studied plein air painting in Illinois. His son developed leukemia which sent Buxman on an environmental quest to clean up the San Joaquin Valley's water, soil, and air quality. He pioneered clean farming techniques which led to many sustainable practices used today. His artwork hangs in our nation's capitol as "a reminder to our leaders of what we must preserve." Matthew Rangel is a printmaker whose featured work was inspired by a pilgrimage he made from the valley floor to the highest reaches of the Great Western Divide of the Sierra Nevada. His print series, A Transect - Due East, is the result of this journey. During his travels, Rangel became acquainted with many knowledgeable and unique individuals throughout the Kaweah River Watershed that influenced his artwork and experience with the land. John Spivey is a poet, writer, and avid photographer born in Exeter, CA. His family were early pioneers in the San Joaquin Valley. Spivey's work includes the book, The Great Western Divide: A History with Crow, Coyote, Chaos and God, and digital photographs that document the color-saturated beauty of the Sierra Nevada.
