Synopsis: In an effort to peacefully coexist with white settlers, a Cheyenne tribe agrees to resettle, sacrificing valued Wyoming hunting grounds to make way for gold prospecting. Lead by Colonel Lindsay (John Lund), the tribe's resettlement journey is also guided by a rugged land surveyor, Josh Tanner (Wagner) and his Cheyenne tribesmen friends - Little Dog (Jeffrey Hunter) and American Horse (Hugh O'Brian). But an attraction between Little Dog's fiancee (Debra Paget) and Tanner threatens to ruin the resettlement plan, and the tribe sends an arrow with a single white feather - a symbol of their intention to wage war!
