Our Pati

Seneca; Temple Butte and McKenna Peak

Check out this wonderful article in the Telluride Daily Planet by writer Katie Klingsporn:

In the photo above, Temple Butte is the prominent promontory behind snow-covered McKenna Peak (shaped like a pyramid).

Seneca is the lovely mustang, walking through her lovely, winter-white-coated world.

Thanks so much to all who contributed to the success of our application to name Temple Butte in honor of Pati (and David) Temple. It’s the least we could do to honor a woman who did so much for the wild she knew and loved.

What a wonderful way to memorialize Pati! And I’m sure she would appreciate the article telling it like it is!!!

This is such a great story, TJ. Beginning with Pati and her work on behalf of the mustangs, then on to those who wanted her to be remembered and all of the work they did to have the butte named for her, and finally, ending with Pati – Temple Butte a reality, forever a memorial to her. Cool!
