Northwestern woman Sadie (Irene Rich) owns a casino riverboat used by gold-miners to drink and gamble their way to their claims. The Yukon Mining Company sends John Thorne (Melvin Lang) to take over Sadie's boat and then cheat the miners out of their claims. Unfortunately, Sadie complies due to her desperately needing the money from the sale of the boat to bring her daughter back from boarding school. When Sadie's daughter Helen arrives with her boyfriend Bob, never knowing what her mother did for a living, Sadie becomes distressed by how much the refined Helen loves the Yukon and that Bob begins to work for Thorne. Sadie calls on her ex-partner Ace (Charles Bickford) to get her boat back and set things right. Based on a Jack London story.
