Mustangs 2016 A Wild Ghost Chase

"Stealth and Strategy"
Four days and three herd management areas my friend Alice and I roamed ranges in Oregon's remote south east corner, also known as the Northern Great Basin. We encountered temperatures from morning frost and cold sleet, to blowing dust, heat, and sunburned skin... in one day. The temperatures often run in extremes out in the high desert region. Besides extremes in temperatures, we also ran into extremes in the tolerance of us by the mustangs - all ranges from mild to wild. Often, I get the question of how close do wild horses let people get to the band or herd. Some bands who see bi-pods enough, typically tolerate us well enough... while some ignore and continue to graze, others will want to get too close and we have to shoo them away, raise our cameras/tripods, or kick a sagebrush. Then there are those bands, that if they see a dot with two legs among the sage- all that is left is dust rising where they stood and vanish among the miles of sagebrush. Different bands and herds all require a different approach style. The wild bands, it's a lot of stealth & strategy... one mis-step and miles of hiking- they can blow out of there...

    So dry and didn't look like much forage. Little water and far between. Beautiful horses. I have horses and a Bachelor's degree in equine science and have worked with a few wild horses. Good comments.

    I sure do love watching anthes videos. I wish the written words didn't disappear so quickly, I cannot read them fast enough. I have two refline three or four times just to read it. That's not going to stop me from watching your videos I love them. Chooses these horses names? I love their names. Awesome videos!

    What a magical place the Steens Mountains are. Had the opportunity to spend a little time watching one of the bands lounging around a watering hole about 2 weeks ago.

    Hope this year you are able to get out back and find Mazeratti... hopefully Porche is at her side, but most likely another one will be to with another on the way!

    At 2:00 it shows the Renegade band and I believe the horse with the white stockings is his daughter Dahlia; do you know if this is her as a youngster?

    i don't get people who "love wild horses" but want to capture "one of their own" and take its freedom away and tame it so it's not wild anymore.

    Right! There are so many horses out there already that are in such dire conditions (because of humans might I add) that need homes. Then people see these horses thriving and are being a horse, it’s just humans being fucking selfish wanting everything for themselves and thinking that they have the right because they are human; man it makes me angry.
