Pete Menlo owns some gold claims in Nevada where he is joined by his old friend Andy Martin. Crooked mine-owner Bannon wants to merge their interests so they can create a monopoly but is turned down. Pete is interested in 'Nevada' Wray, daughter of mine-owner 'Jackpot' Wray, but she has eyes only for Andy. The rejected Pete joins forces with Bannon and they learn that, because of location, 'Jackpot' Wray may be the owner of all the gold in the respective veins. Bannon and his men try to get rid of Andy. ...

Yellow Mountain is a lively and colourful western that has a modicum of fisticuffs, stare downs, mine dynamiting and chases. The final shootout between Lex Barker and Leo Gordon and John McIntyre is well done with a good suspenseful buildup. It's a light fare all decked in Technicolor - the cinematography is great and so are the stars -Lex Barker, Howard Duff and the pretty Mala Powers. This is great fun.
