From Spring Creek Basin’s “north hills,” the views are tremendous:

Do you see the mustangs? Admittedly, they’re a long way away. 🙂 (Look between the tallest fingers of the dead tree in the foreground.)

I. LOVE. THAT. VIEW!

And in the right light, it’s more painting than reality … except that the very best thing is that it IS reality! I realize that the above three pix are very similar; I couldn’t decide among them to pick just one. 🙂

From nearly the same vantage point, looking in the other direction, off the top:

Wild country. Available to the mustangs, but I’ve never seen any down/back there … of course, it would be a lucky combination to be in the right place at the right time (both/all of us!).

I too love those views from the “north country,” TJ! And I love your photos too! So many Spring Creek Basin landmarks with all their puckers and wrinkles are visible from that vantage point and it’s so beautiful – especially in the late-day light. Thanks, TJ!

“Puckers and wrinkles”! I love that! 🙂 That late light, those long shadows … that land. 🙂 I forgot to mention that I was with horses when I took those pix. … My heart was FULL!

A beautiful view. The effort it took to get there well worth it.
I spotted what I thought was ponies, and they were! ❤️

So glad you spotted them! The climb up the hill is always worthwhile! 🙂
