Spring Creek Basin Mustangs

That snow? It’s pretty much gone. February feels like April … but we heard that we may get lucky in the snow department again in early March. Here’s hoping, hoping, hoping! Seneca and Killian already are using branches to ease itchy coats.

We need all the winter moisture we can get because we never know what the rest of the year will bring.

Comanche concentrated only on defense of his family from Chrome’s half-hearted challenge. But he looked awfully good doing it!

Mariah is a very typical young grey. And a very typically beautiful Spring Creek Basin mustang!

He puts the “ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!” in ahhhhhhhhhhhh-mazing, doesn’t he? 🙂

Copper caught in a nap.

… and big, broad, beautiful country.

Winona rocks the rimrocks of Spring Creek Basin … and the La Sal Mountains of Utah.

Shadow-mare stands in the shadows cast by full-on Colorado winter sunshine. And boy-howdy, that famous Colorado sunshine is in full force! The mercury rose to near 60 degrees (so said my vehicle) the day this pic was taken.

Sure, it looks like we still have a fair amount of snow, but this particular image is a little misleading. What we do have is the most amazing, glorious mud! You can see a bit of it in the very near foreground, partially obscured by the branches.

Ah, young love. … Well, at least young tolerance. 🙂
