This website is owned and created by Nancy Kerson, a private citizen - I am not the BLM or any other branch of government!
Information about BLM adoptions is offered as a service, to help mustangs find homes and to promote public appreciation of wild horses and burros.
Please direct adoption questions to the BLM, not to me.
And I sure as heck am not a Mustang car dealership!
I have NO horses or burros for sale and am not interested in buying or listing or otherwise promoting your sale animals!

They toured several of the smaller, lesser-known wild horse areas of Northern California, including Carter Reservoir, Red Rock Lake, and McGavin Peaks.

The Carter Reservoir herd tests very "Old Spanish" and their body type and colors - dun, palomino, overo pinto, etc. are very consistent with this ancestry.

PINE NUT HMA, outside Minden/Gardnerville, NV
Kathy Port is a photographer who likes o go out into the Nevada desert areas to observe wild horses and other wildlife. She sent me these great pictures of the Pine Nut range near Gardnerville, Nevada:
We saw this wild herd on the road between Soldier Meadows and Summit Lake - it is either in Black Rock, Warm Springs Canyon, or Calico Mountains - really not sure which. Here's a band of Calico Mountains horses leaving McCarty Springs on the West slope of the range.
Comstock horses (Virginia Range) are probably the easiest wild horses for the tourist to access. They live in the areas surrounding Reno, Carson City, along US 50 out of Carson City, and, of course, VIrginia City. They are frequently seen along roadsides (where they are at risk for being hit by cars!) and residential areas (where they are also at risk for being reported as nuisance horses).
Here are some excellent links with photos and stories by Willis Lamm, who lives in Wild Horse Country:

Someone sent me these fabulous pictures from the Calico Mountians, but the photos have become separate from the email identifying the photographer. If it is you, please let me know so I can credit you!
