Seneca teaches us that we should never miss the opportunity to play in the snow!

Pretty pintos Reya and Chipeta pose atop a snowy hill juuuuuust long enough for the shutter to snap before their stallion moved them on. These girls are always on the move. … Well, almost always. 🙂

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.

Doesn’t it look just like it must have when the region was covered by a giant ocean? I mean, look at all that WATER.
So it’s frozen. It’s still a whole lotta moisture. 🙂

Like perhaps many of the world’s female population, I can admit to a minor crush on Strider, aka Aragorn, aka Viggo Mortensen. … But our boy Killian sure knows how to rock the screen, too. 🙂

Shadow grazes through the snow in the light.

Handsome Tenaz – lookin’ good in all weather!

In the very best way!
The (falling) snow has moved out, and now we have those fabulously famous Colorado bluebird skies, which make the snow even MORE gloriously, stunningly white. We’ve now had more snow in this storm than we got all last “winter” – aka the winter that wasn’t. Life is good. 🙂

Hollywood and Shane wait out the snow under some pinon and juniper trees. They couldn’t have known, but it would continue that evening and night and all the next day.
Lower Disappointment Valley now has at least 10 inches of snow covering the drought-parched ground!
