Abner's Gulch & Judson's Landing

ABNER TATE is a Civil War veteran who journeys to Colorado Territory after the war to find his family. He learns quickly in struggles with other men and the forces of nature to fend for himself. Battered by a tornado he takes refuge in a gulch which will become his home. AMOS JUDSON is an aging mountainman who adopts a Ute Indian boy and settles down to operate a ferry boat. As he changes from wild to civilized he is reminded that a man must remember how to protect himself when the villainous cousins of a competitor attempt to rob him.
