A Day at MacKay

After a leisurely breakfast we took a walk around the campground and reservoir. Here are a few shots to give you a feel for this spot. We are surrounded 360 by mountains which top out at 12000 plus feet.

Here's the view from the boat landing looking back at our campsite.

Our site was at the top of the hill with a great view all around.

What did we do all afternoon! Opened a bottle of Reisling and searched the far hill looking for the white mustang. And we spotted him but so far away there was no chance of a picture. He came down to the water to drink, grazed a little and then lay down, rolled over, kicked his heals, got up and pranced around a bit then took off up the hill. He's all alone but looks like he's having fun (if horses have fun).

We ended the evening watching the sunset and enjoying our first campfire of the year. It got pretty cool so after a cup of tea we packed it in. It was just about a perfect day at MacKay.
