Sometimes (OK, all the time), you never know where you’ll find the mustangs when you drive into Spring Creek Basin. And even after all my years of driving into the basin, they sometimes (!) surprise me.
These horses are at the top of Spring Creek canyon, above the rimrocks. It’s not nearly the vertical wall on the other side, where it slopes into a little “bowl” of a hillside, so their approach is easy to fathom. And they must have had a nice breeze up there, keeping the descending gnats at bay, because they were up there for at least a couple of hours (before I arrived and after I left)! And the view – I can attest – is fabulous.
