The whole premise of the story line is illogical and totally unbelievable. First, the Zion Park ranger tells the museum archeologist that she cannot remove native artifacts from Zion Nat'l Park. Then he gets a "permit" for her to go "looking" for artifacts. Then a permit is given to someone to do a high-level photo flyover, but the ranger witnesses the helicopter make an illegal landing in the park, remove the said artifacts, load them in the helicopter, and fly away with them. He is talking with the thieves, watches them make off with the treasure, and says nothing - other than acknowledging that it was too bad that they got to the artifacts before the museum archeologist. (The viewer is wondering why he didn't tell them that removing artifacts from a National Park is illegal.) Then, the "only way" to save the artifacts is - no, not to charge the thieves with a crime - but rather to have to prove that that artifacts are "owned" by a relative of the ancestral native that originally crafted them. Where's the logic? Should Hallmark really portray National Park Rangers as stupid? Or think that their viewers are this stupid?
I would give this movie's story line a 0, but I generously gave the movie a 3 just for the beautiful Zion scenery throughout the movie.
