echohawk

golden boy


Echo is Smoke's buddy and out on the trail they have a really good time together. Echo is our only horse not from a California HMA but comes from Buck n Bald in Nevada. He's silly and sassy and likes to dig in pockets to see if there's any good stuff there but aside from that, he's a good horse that has half a moustache when he's shed out in the summertime. He's a palomino with some really cool and unusual markings that also come out when he's shed out and he's tall. We got him from a wonderful woman who loved him but needed a first-time horse. With Pableu he's very gentle and loving and the only one who doesn't discipline him much. Elvon would say that Echohawk is only on his "second cat life" meaning he's still real young and green. His name when we got him was Echo and we added the 'hawk' part to honor the Echohawk family, native folks who practice indian law and defend native rights. I like to stand in his corral and tease him about his halfa moustache and tickle his chin. He loves it...
