Drifting through Apache country in Arizona, drifter Logan Cates (
Rory Calhoun)takes command of an ill-assorted group, which includes Jennifer Fair (
Barbara Bates) and Grant Kimbrough (
John Dehner) when they are besieged by Apaches at Papago Wells. Their food, water give out and, for some, their courage. When a dust storm hits, Cates leads the survivors in a desperate attack against the Indians.
