Bakken has finally had her foal or finally someone has spotted her with her foal!! It is a filly. Thank you Cass from NPS for providing the extra photo on this page.
This is from Bighorn Canyon National Recreation’s Facebook page:
We have big news today here at Bighorn Canyon NRA. Bakken has been seen with her new late-season foal. This image was captured by one of our remote cameras just this morning! Alongside Bakken were Blizzard and Strawberry. Congrats to the whole herd!

(Thank you Cass!)
Bakken is the 2001 daughter of Sacajewa and Cortez. Father of this foal is unknown, possibly Fiero or Blizzard.
I will be in the Pryors on Saturday. I hope I can see this little one while I am there. Thank you Bighorn Canyon for sharing this!

Yay! Im glad she had her foal and it definitely looks very healthy and sturdy! I had a feeling she was probably with Blizzard since she wasnt with Fiero. I wonder if that was a conscious decision on her part. Maybe she thought her late season foal would fair better with Blizzard. Who knows… But I hope you see them this weekend! 🙂
Great news…but so late 🙁
I was just out there Monday but was not lucky enough to find them. Maybe tomorrow!! 🙂
Thanks Sandy!
Maybe see you Saturday?
The weather is supposed to turn very cold and snowy on Monday, according to the weather channel.
Hi Lori!! I saw the weather, but of course every time I come lately it rains or snows… 🙂 Hope to see you too!!
yep…what else is new? HA HA..I am off the whole weekend so hope we can explore the range together and find the new little one!!!! Stay in touch!! 🙂
I will! 🙂
What a relief to know Bakken and her little daughter are looking good going into colder weather. Thank you so much for the photos. Good weather and lots of good sightings this weekend!!
Thank you Laura! I hope I have good luck with the weather and the horse sightings! 🙂
Happy to hear that the foal has finally arrived 🙂 Isn´t this the only foal in the Dryhead this year?
Hi Thora, There are two 2013 foals for the Dryhead horses. Norte (Corona and Waif) and now Bakken’s filly.
