The West Desert has been getting some flood developing storms. Some new grass coming up. The BLM opened the gates to a area that was burned about three years ago, a lot of good grass. The mustangs stayed in there for two or three weeks. Now they are back in their favorite territory, close to...

Spring green in September. The best the Desert has looked all summer. Our three hundred head is now about 130 head. Now they can all have water.

I counted 120 head that the BLM had turned back onto the Desert. I was personally overjoyed that they turned back most of Gypsy's family members. They kept Gypsy's sixth cold, but the others were back on the Desert. Included in the pictures are Fred, Peanut and #5 and his white mares. Scout...

I'm guessing they rounded up about six years ago. They have holding pens in Delta Utah. They do offer adoption. I know of one ranch that houses mustangs. I'm quite sure there are others.

In five more days the BLM will take most of them away. They say we will get 104 head back.

It's been so long sense I've been out there, that I figured I'd post about all I had. Some are a little stale, but most of the paints were hiding out somewhere else. Notice Friendly Fred in the 6th picture. He is six years old this year. He is covered with minor wounds. Just because I haven't...

They live on very little feed and strain the water through their teeth. There is clean water, but they will drink just about anything. The BLM will cut their numbers down in July. Mustangs and pictures will be a lot harder to find.

It was hot and dry, but the mustangs looked good. Very few baby's. The BLM is going to do a big gather in July. I've heard they are going to give us back about 100 head.

Most of them have wintered well. Five or six babies out of 150 head.

Dry and dusty. Plenty of water for the Mustangs. Gypsy's fifth colt with his band of mares.

Antelope don't always cooperate. It's easier when water is scarce.

There is water around, and snow on the north faces. When they want it,,,, they will find it. Both Grass and water. Mustang.

Living on thin rations and snow.

He was another old guy who chased mustangs with a camera, but somehow he lost interest, and now spends his time riding 4-wheelers. The pictures are of Gypsy, her second colt, the buckskin and the twins. The carmello, is the "Big Twin" before the BLM took him away. I heard he is now in an...

The photographer is some old guy that has a phobia for chasing mustangs with a camera. He was hiding in a ditch when the twins came over to check him out. That next to last picture scarred him a little. That twin is looking right down the camera lens.
