11/10/2016No access at trap. We were told there would be a couple of runs to remove off HMA horses and then trap would move. We sat at holding and watched about 100 horses come off the range. Often the ability to document was blocked by trailers.

We had multiple discussions about the injured horses at the release and worked toward creating a better “communication” plan to address concerns: https://wildhorseeducation.org/2016/11/08/warning-unheeded-disaster-hits-wild-horses-at-roundup/

We discussed working on access. We were told an effort would be made to facilitate the following day.

11/11/2016 Today access to view wild horses is still an issue. We gained permission from landowner, after signing a liability waiver, to view from private property. However I saw three safe viewing locations on public land across the valley that would have provided better viewing. I was told “the helicopter might fly over your head,” even though both locations were in rocks (safe from horses). I thought it rather ironic that the helicopter then flew within 500 ft of our location on his way back to refuel.
