Sally, Beyond Beautiful images you created. Thanks for sharing. I have that place on my bucket list.
I’m not sure how it’ll be after the BLM roundup later this summer. If you can’t make it before I’d probably wait a few years and let the herd replenish a bit.

Great captures. They most likely & hopefully grow in number again. Do you know how they round them up? On horse back, vehicles, etc. ? If by horse, it might be fun to photograph.
Unfortunately I believe it is with helicopters. There are always horse advocates there to observe but it’s such a sad event I don’t want to see it.

Beautiful set, Sally! Where is this in relation to Salt Lake City?
The closest town is Dugway’s but you can’t stay there unless you are military. We stayed in Tooele. That’s about an hour and a half from the range.

My husband and I spent three days last week photographing the Onaqui wild horses not far from Salt Lake City. The horses are beautiful. Unfortunately a BLM roundup is planned for later this summer so I am so thankful that we were able to view them now.
Great photos Sally.

Gorgeous captures of these beautiful animals, especially your first image.
My understanding is that the BLM rounds these animals up, periodically, and put them up for adoption. Only those that couldn't be adopted are put out to permanent pasture. Is that what actually happens to these animals?
