Deep in the heart of the canyon, Little Pinto is just three months old. Still a bit unsteady on his feet, he must be ready to travel with his family, a band of rare, wild mustangs, as they search for water along the desert flats. Led by the colt's father, Old White Face, the band roams free but must always be alert for signs of danger. At his signal they are ready to scatter to safety, whether a strange stallion threatens the harem or a whining plane swoops overhead. But can Little Pinto keep up?
