Outlaw Trail: The Treasure of Butch Cassidy

In 1908 Bolivia, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid attempt to elude capture as Bolivian police close in. Cassidy writes a letter to his family and encloses a belt buckle engraved with a treasure map that might change their fortunes. The scene establishes the legendary treasure as the driving hook for the story.

In 1951 Circleville, Utah, Roy Parker, Cassidy's great-nephew, defends his ancestor's reputation against opposition from his grandfather Sam. Sam resents the worship of Cassidy and tries to squash Roy's interest. The family tension sets the stage for the treasure hunt to become personal.

Roy discovers the belt buckle left by Cassidy, which encodes a map to the buried treasure in Utah. He realizes the legend may be more than folklore and that the map could justify Cassidy's reputation. The discovery fuels Roy and friends to seek the treasure.

Roy is briefly jailed on a trumped-up charge as his grandfather's scorn intensifies. Sam's bitterness highlights the friction between generations over Cassidy's legacy. The incident solidifies Roy's resolve to prove the truth about Cassidy.

Jess rescues Roy from jail, and the pair decide to pursue the treasure together. They recruit new allies to join the quest, setting the stage for a dangerous expedition into the Utah wilderness. The plan transforms into a coming-of-age adventure for the group.

Roy is joined by his friends Ellie and Martin, who join the hunt after Roy takes Martin's truck during the jailbreak. The foursome forms a makeshift crew determined to beat Garrison to the prize. The team dynamics add humor and risk to the pursuit.

A corrupt museum official named Garrison threads through the pursuit, stopping at nothing to seize Cassidy's treasure. The pursuit is marked by car chases and constant danger as the group edges toward the map's clues. The antagonist raises the stakes for every decision the kids make.

In a desperate escape, the group travels down a river in a raft without paddles. They face the elements and the clock as their search for the treasure intensifies. The sequence showcases the peril and resourcefulness of the youngsters.

The crew stages a daring stunt by jumping onto the roof of a moving train to keep one step ahead of their pursuers. The moment captures the audacity and danger of their treasure hunt. It cements the adventure as a modern-day frontier quest.

Roy and Ellie are tied up and gagged, providing a crunch moment in the chase. The group must improvise and continue their quest despite the setback. The incident heightens the stakes for the treasure's fate.

The youths endure a harrowing biplane ride, adding airborne danger to their race for the treasure. The aerial sequence tests their nerves while the map's mystery deepens. The excitement underscores the film's blend of adventure and humor.

The pursuit culminates as the four close friends race to uncover the treasure, facing gunfights and rivalries along the way.
