All that snow is BRIGHT under the Colorado sunshine! Alegre and the other mustangs do get a little squinty-eyed trying to keep out the glare.
Does she have some impressive wind knots or what?!

Elder Aspen cuts a dashing figure against the rimrocks of Spring Creek canyon in the far western part of Spring Creek Basin.
He’s starting to show his age, and he moves slowly and deliberately through the snow (not much *dashing* for him, really), but for a mustang that I’d guess to be in at least his mid-20s, he’s looking pretty fine, indeed.
Interestingly, before I got out to Terra and her band, the mountains had been fully visible. Rather than clearing of snow clouds, the clouds were enveloping them (again). They look just about as fabulous as Terra in HER winter coat. 🙂
Sleepy, sleepy Skywalker. 🙂
All that snow acts as a giant light reflector, and while the air is cold, it also serves to create a very real warmth. And after filling their bellies, they’re very amenable to nice little naps!
Another inch to 2 or 3 fell over Spring Creek Basin early yesterday morning and freshened up our snow world!
Pretty pale Rowan was quite undisturbed by the couple of inches of fresh snow a few days ago.
Cold temps are keeping a fair snow cover in place for us. The rest of Southwest Colorado, by all reports, is pretty well buried under an exceptional amount of snow. The greasewood and shadscale pictured around Rowan wouldn’t be visible if we had the snow that our neighbors have! We’re plenty happy with our seemingly just-right amount of snow. 🙂
