Spring Creek Basin Mustangs

In the few weeks since this photo of Puzzle was taken, much of the snow on the hills in the background has melted, giving way to green grass under those far pines.

Those hills lead to an area locally known as The Glade, south of Spring Creek Basin and at higher altitude. We’re still reaping the benefits of that high-country snow in the form of creeks flowing down to our low(er) country.

A lone bachelor *might* be admiring the view. He might be contemplating his next move. He might be thinking how awesome it is to be a mustang in Spring Creek Basin!

We don’t have the biggest range, but it’s expansive enough to make us feel small.

Cassidy Rain, the darkly, long-leggedly beautiful.

She doesn’t have time to pose for photos, man. Catch her if you can.

This pic of handsome Comanche was taken in the far eastern part of Spring Creek Basin, where the eastern ridges look (and are) fairly close. That background, even on a fairly dull day, makes Com seem to stand out from the landscape.

‘Course, Mr. Handsome doesn’t need a whole lotta help to be a standout. 🙂

Storm cocks an ear toward a far-away band as he moseys back to his own band from a chat with a nearer band’s stallion.

We got some rain – more than an inch – during the last couple of days. After a decent winter, things have been pretty dry here this spring. We’re grateful for the soaking rain! Things already are looking greener.
