Fred and Barney, now aware that Zeke and Zack wish to them mortal harm, are informed by their wives of the true source of the gold nuggets. Wilma and Betty have followed their cavemen to the waterfall and use long hooks while standing on a bridge spanning the river below the falls, to pull Fred and Barney from the raging white water. They cut the deck's suspension ropes to send Fred and Barney careening into the tumult. Zeke and Zack trick Fred and Barney into standing on the wooden observation deck to a local tourist attraction- a waterfall. However, Fred and Barney, desiring more gold, refuse Zeke and Zack's $700 offer to repurchase the claim, and are targeted not just by Zeke and Zack but also by a pair of ruffians named Evil Eye and Snake Legs, for unlawful confiscation of the claim. As predicted by Wilma and Betty, Zeke and Zack want the claim back, now that they believe there is truly gold on the site. As Wilma and Betty have hoped, Fred and Barney "strike gold", jump for joy, and carry their presumed yield to Zeke for weighing and appraising. So, using their own Rock Vegas winnings, they buy some gold nuggets and place the nuggets in the river being panned for gold by their spouses.
Wilma and Betty are not convinced that there is any gold to be found at Hangman's Gulch and are certain that Fred and Barney have been duped yet again by unsavory characters.
Returning to home after a vacation in Rock Vegas, Fred, Wilma, Barney, and Betty lose intended direction and stop at Goldrock City on the Western frontier, where a general store owner named Zeke conspires with an elderly prospector named Zack to swindle Flintstone and Rubble into purchasing a claim to a bogus gold field (Hangman's Gulch) with the $300 that they won in Rock Vegas. Traveling through the desert on their way to Rock Vegas, Fred and Barney fall prey to con men who have seeded the river with phony gold.
