Nature Boy

Captain Lee Quince must escort the quirky Quiring family from the Red Cloud Agency to Fort Laramie. The family, obsessed with Indian culture and nature, wanders into Indian territory. As they explore, they're unaware of the real danger from nearby tribes. Quince forms a search party, ensuring their safe return before it's too late.

Fort Laramie was a significant 19th-century trading post, diplomatic site, and military installation located at the confluence of the Laramie and the North Platte Rivers. They joined in the upper Platte River Valley in the eastern part of the present-day US state of Wyoming. The fort was founded as a private trading post in the 1830s to service the overland fur trade; in 1849, it was purchased by the United States Army. The site was located east of the long climb leading to the best and lowest crossing over the Rocky Mountains at South Pass and became a popular stop for migrants on the Oregon Trail. Along with Bent's Fort on the Arkansas River, the trading post and its supporting industries and businesses were the most significant economic hub of commerce in the region.
