I’d never seen them, but I’d heard about the few
wild horses that range the sagebrush desert west of Sheep Mountain and east of
Highway 310, which runs northward from Greybull to Lovell. Hubby has done some
work out in that country and told of seeing a stallion, mares, and colts. They
differ from other bands seen at the McCullough Peaks Management Area towards
Cody in that they’re mostly black and much more skittish at the sight of
humans.
I’ve driven Highway 310 dozens, if not hundreds,
of times without seeing those horses, so I was surprised and delighted to catch
a glimpse of seven of them as they sped past us a few days ago. We had no camera, only a phone
with no zoom, but were blessed to record the enchanted moment nonetheless.
