The Beasley Girls

In the 1870s Wyoming Territory, Captain Lee Quince is tasked with finding two missing Beasley girls after a brutal Sioux attack on a wagon train. With limited men, Quince strikes a deal with captured Sioux chief Big Elk for the girls' location. At dawn, they ride out, hoping to trade for the girls' safe return.

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.
