SYN: The Stooges are hired as guides by Nell and her three chorus girls, who are crossing the plains for an engagement in San Francisco. After wild bears steal their food, the Stooges decide to play the role of the hunters, and go out looking for their next meal. Speaking of being Hunted, Chief Growling Bear and his Indian braves surround Nell's wagon, kidnapping Daisy, Tessie, and Flossie and prompting the Stooges to come to the rescue. The girls escape, somehow making their way back to the wagon, and the group lift sail blowing to safety in their wagon/sailboat, being chased by the rampaging redskins.

Quick Hits:

- Co Star Linda Winters later changed her name to Dorothy Comingmore and was prominently featured in Orson Welles' classic "Citizen Kane."
