Sly and friends are rescue workers in the Rockies. Their rock climbing skills are hijacked by John Lithgow and his cronies, who are searching for suitcases filled with cash lost after a botched robbery from the Denver mint. Spectacular scenery and stunts are wasted on inane dialogue, stereotyped characters, action cliches and sadistic violence.
