Magpie, I'm game to go anytime, and I'd love company! This was in the newspaper last month: http://www.azcentral.com/news/articles/2012/06/16/20120616salt-river-wild-horse-herd-future.html
I want to go to!!! The forest is absolutely captivating as are the horses. Those are some really cool shots.
I just heard that several wild horse areas in the Northern area are suffering from drought and a couple hundred corpses were found. I hope it's not these guys. We have several wild ones down here as well. Very difficult. Here's the story. If they have to capture the wild horses, they are sold to ranchers who then end up selling them to Mexico to be butchered. I was shocked at the news. It was on our local news station tonight. Broke my heart.

I'm fascinated by wild horses in the Phoenix/Mesa area. How close were you to them, Brenda?
As near as 10 yards? When you come back to visit, Kathy, I'll take you!
Oh, when you take Kathy, I would love to tag along. I've never heard of these horses. They're amazing.

A real breath of fresh air here!
Didn't know you had these around Phoenix. Interesting. What beautiful critters. Are doing OK in the wild? Obviously they're breeding.
