[1][2][3] As described in a film magazine,[4] wealthy William Crombie (Davidson) has always been able to purchase what he wanted, including his lovely wife Agnes (Hopper).

At a dinner party in his luxurious home, to the intense boredom of his guests, William tells of his hunting exploits and of having killed a wounded bear with his bare hands.

Returning to his city home he finds that he has been to weak to hold onto his wife and that she has been made love to by another man, Carl Richards (Gerrard).

William then returns to the Canadian Rockies and, after a series of adventures, rescues Barbe and Jean after a desperate battle with a half-breed and an Indian.

The trapper tells him that he has won Jean fairly, but William's better spirit rules and he returns to his lodge where he finds his wife happily waiting for him.
