Elder and younger

Skywalker and Duke

Skywalker is one of the youngest bachelor stallions in Spring Creek Basin; Duke is one of the oldest. It’s fascinating to watch the elder mustangs mentor the younger.

His needs: Water, food, his family, his freedom. ‘Nuff said.

Storm

Storm is muddy and still oh-so-handsome under a glorious sky. And check out that grama grass. Yellow but prolific this year.

And we got rain! Holy mustangs, we got rain! Nearly an inch and a quarter since early Monday morning. That’s pretty glorious. 🙂





The prettiest gold

Gaia

Spring Creek Basin’s elevation – and lack of rainfall – is too low to support Colorado’s iconic aspen trees, but we find gold in other places. 🙂 Gorgeous Gaia is one of our golden girls!

Hollywood

Hollywood looks on, unconcerned, as Sundance creates a dust storm nearby. Love his regal expression!
