The Navajo Indians need a special kind of coloured sand for their religious ceremonies, but this sand can only be found on property belonging to crooked Ed Fallon, who makes money by hiding outlaws. The Range Rider promises to help the Indians by dressing up as a Medicine Man, but while looking for the sand he is captured by the outlaws and taken to their leader, Ed Fallon. Can Dick rescue him in time?
