Drawing from a rich heritage as a high-country stockman, Joe Taylor of Moab, Utah’s Taylor Creek Ranch has crafted an enduring line of pretty athletes.
The band of Quarter Horse mares flowed through the high mountain meadow at a long trot. So alike in color, conformation and movement were they that, at first glance, it was hard to tell them apart.
