Sunset Carson joined the Republic stable of cowboy heroes with Call Of The Rockies and he gained a worthy sidekick in Smiley Burnette using his Frog Millhouse character.
Call Of The Rockies has Sunset and Frog fighting perennial western villain Harry Woods who is a merchant and who owns mortgages on most of the mines in the area. Including Kirk Alyn's and Ellen Hall's mine. But Alyn has a plan to drain a lot of the underground water away because he feels new deposits of gold will open up and a lot of claims will be rich.
Which is why Woods and a secret partner want control so desperately and they're not squeamish on tactics used.
Not a great actor by any means, Sunset Carson did look well in the saddle and that's usually enough for a cowboy hero.
