Wild And Free



This week's PhotoHunt theme is free.

The Snowy Mountains in south-eastern Australia are a haven for free-roaming feral horses. We came across this Brumby while hiking from Dead Horse Gap to Mt. Koscuiszko.

  4. ewok, I am glad you like the picture.

    YTSL, this picture was taken over Christmas which is summer here, so there were just a few patches of snow but it was really cold. The area has skiing in the winter so they must get a good base.

    Kathy, when the trail dropped into the clouds I thought to myself that it was the perfect setting to come across a brumby. It was magical when we did.
