A gang of masked marauders have gathered to attack a stage coach that is passing through the San Ramon Gorge. The following morning a group carrying gold attempts to cross Horseshoe Creek via ferry, but the men operating the ferry suddenly turn on the men and rob them of their gold. Meanwhile, the robbed coach is discovered by Kid Colt, who finds it suspicious that the thieves cut loose the horses. He decides to pay a visit to his friend Pete Lowry to see if there is anything he knows about what's going on.

When he arrives at the Lowry ranch he finds Pete being hassled by some outlaws. The Kid slays most of the gang and lets one flee. From Pete, Kid Colt learns about the various crimes in the area. He learns that the outlaws only came to force Lowry to give up his horses, which the Kid finds odd since the only thing takne from the coach was horses as well. Kid Colt decides to leave, believing that whatever is going on is best left to the law.
