Picture Notes: On 07/10/2013, I drove some company that was visiting from Kansas out to Cold Creek to see if we could get lucky and capture some pictures of feral horses that commonly roam the area. We were not disappointed. During the nearly two hours we spent there, we must have observed more that 25 of these wild animals either walking the road or roaming the desert areas along side the road leading to town. Stopping on several occasions for a closer look and some “petting” opportunities, I was able to capture several dozen pictures, which I narrowed down to the half dozen or so shown here. As you can see in (Figs. 06 & 07), Jim and his daughter Christina were both amazed at how “tame” most of the animals were; many times walking right up to us for closer inspection, or more likely looking for a handout. If you have never been to Cold Creek, I encourage you to make the time for a visit. As many times as I have been here, I never come away disappointed. Note: If you do go to visit this area, please resist the urge to offer them food, as it is illegal to feed them.
