Poser

Skywalker

Skywalker the stunning. He’s such a poser … in the very best way. 🙂

Those are the rimrocks of Spring Creek canyon in the background.





Itchy

Storm

Storm found a couple of trees the other day with multiple branches that were good for scratching multiple itches. Check out the lip. 🙂

As you can see from the trunk of the tree and the ground around him, we got a bit of snow. Most of it didn’t last long, but in the upper parts of the basin (and greater Disappointment Valley), there was up to an inch or so of dusty white stuff.

Before our little cold snap, the horses were starting to shed!





A little light

Piedra, Brumley Point

Our famous Colorado sunshine has been a little lacking this winter, so we enjoy every bit of it (well, we do that anyway, but it seems particularly valuable this year). 🙂





Sunshiney days

Disappointment Valley had rain during parts of three consecutive days several days ago. And then we had sunshine. 🙂 It was a muddy hike that led to finding Seven, but seeing the boy was well worth every messy step!





Two bay mustangs

Tenaz and Madison

Tenaz and Madison glow on a spring-like February evening in Spring Creek Basin.

Hollywood

Hollywood’s mane catches the evening light as he follows his band through the winter-golden grasses.





Guardians

Maia, Alegre and Houdini

No words for this one.

Corona

Corona is difficult to see at a distance, even when you know (are pretty sure) she’s there.

Magical mustang, most perfectly suited to her home on the range.

Alegre

Everyone knows mustangs are gorgeous.

What you may not have known is that they have subtle senses of humor. 🙂





The near and the far

Reya and Corazon

We were walking – slowly – in mud. The far ridges were still covered in snow. We’ve dried out a bit since this photo was taken, but wet stuff is high in our forecast. And we’re lovin’ it!
