...that takes the cake. Maybe there's another spot with the same name? Never in all my days have I seen anything like that from around Langtry. Incredibly pretty markings on that animal. Congrats. You've got all the cool stuff.

Historic in more ways than one. That is a Paleo site where Indians ran buffalo off the cliff into the sink and slaughtered them. It's a beautiful area, that has produced many fine examples of alterna.

Bob, you know as well as I do that Langtry got a bad rap as far as color and genetics from the early days, too many darkies. But you can't argue with some of the alterna morphs, light phase blairs, and dark blairs with bright orange that turn up in spots west of langtry, or north at the sheep sign, or east by eagle's nest.

Ask Hollister about some of the Lozier animals he collected in the early days. He had that Canyon to himself for about ten years. Those early days were the good old days.
