His son, Percival, is to be made a man on this venture. Ouray, a young Ute, guides the final leg from Santa Fe to the hunting grounds, a large basin deep in the Rocky Mountains known as Bayou Salade, present day South Park, Colorado, a province of the Ute nation. On the way Percival receives a severe head injury. Percival's manservant and companion, Young Tom, dotes.
