Early pioneers, scouts, hunters, and traders fulfill America's destiny to expand Westward, exploring uncharted territory to blaze new trails. While dangers of deadly predators, starvation, bad weather, and unwelcoming Native Americans linger around every corner, the promise of land and opportunity push brave men like Daniel Boone, Kit Carson, and John Colter to keep going. Within the epic adventures and survival of the early settlers lies the origins of Western lore and the creation of legends that live on forever.
The story behind America's first mountain man. When Lewis and Clark's infamous expedition comes to an end, their hunter, John Colter, makes a brave decision to continue venturing through the untamed West on his own, finding work as a guide, hunter, and trapper along the way. Entranced by the beauty and adventure of the unexplored land, Colter is the first Anglo-American to set his sights on the West's most breathtaking landscape, including the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone Valley. But, sprinkled throughout every adventure lies danger, and while trapping beaver in Native American territory, the Blackfeet tribe captures him. Stripped down to nothing and forced to run for his life while the toughest warriors chase him in what would later go down in history as "Colter's Run," he overcomes the impossible and cements himself as an American legend.
A young Jim Bridger joins William Ashley's trapping expedition hoping that the untamed West will bring fortune and adventure. With a photographic memory, Jim quickly catches the attention of seasoned explorers. But when a rescue mission leaves fellow trapper and hunter Hugh Glass fighting for his life after a vicious grizzly bear attack, Jim Bridger's morality is put to the test. As the hostile Arikara warriors close in, Bridger must decide between staying by the side of a dying man or fleeing to safety, and his decision will eventually come back to haunt him.
Determined to make a living as a fur trapper, former slave, Jim Beckwourth's experience venturing through an uninhabited and vast landscape quickly turns into one of the most epic tales of the early West. When a joke about Beckwourth being a long-long member of the Crow tribe turns into a believable rumor, the adventure of a lifetime begins. Enamored with the culture and adopted by the members, Beckwourth takes a Crow wife and becomes a war chief, battling alongside his newfound tribe. But when business between the Crows and his former life brings his old friend Tom Fitzpatrick into the mix, Beckwourth's worlds violently collide, and he must choose between his past and present.
Under direct orders from President Thomas Jefferson, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark lead the first expedition of its kind through the uncharted frontier. In hopes of reaching the Pacific Ocean, Lewis and Clark's team travels by boat up the Missouri River, but the waters become too shallow to cross the Rocky Mountains. With no way to travel by land with their supplies, Lewis and Clark rely on a young Shoshone woman named Sacagawea who is accompanying them on the expedition to communicate with the Shoshone tribe and set up a trade for the horses that they need to cross the Rocky Mountains before winter and successfully reach the Pacific Ocean.
