Antonio's magnificant mount seems a liitle ambivalent about the newcomer to the summit of Socorro, but the Wolf , despite its formidable power, was not there to out-perform, but to help. 

 

And help it certainly did - as sure footed as the horses up (and down) the rain slicked slopes, and (considering the weather) quite a lot more comfortable than a horse! Chase cars have never been so luxurious!

(Glad I didn't have to clean off the mud...)

 

And of course at the end of the day, as the sun came out, the horse and the Wolf

became the best of friends...

 

 

 

..and there's another view of the encounter here!
