This photographer is an SRWHMG volunteer in the field. Our volunteers stick to the 50 ft guideline and often more, in order not to disturb: the horses never got up.<\/p>\n<p>If they do get up, you know you&#8217;ve disturbed them. Anytime they look directly at you, you know you&#8217;ve disturbed them, even if in a small way.<\/p>\n<p>If everyone who comes across the Salt River horses disturbs them in their natural behavior, they&#8217;ll never have a minute&#8217;s rest. Please enjoy watching the horses while adhering to these viewing guidelines:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Keep a safe distance of 50 ft from horses at all times, even if they come your way. This is for their well-being, and for yours.<\/li>\n<li>Approaching closer than 50 ft can be interfering\/harassment, which is punishable by law with a fine and\/or jail sentence.<\/li>\n<li>Do not feed horses, this is bad for them and is also against the law. (except for the feed program by SRWHMG)<\/li>\n<li>Keep dogs leashed as horses can attack dogs and vice versa. Maricopa County Leash Law is in effect in the Tonto National Forest.<\/li>\n<li>Close all gates behind you for their safety.<\/li>\n<li>When riding horses in the forest it is even easier to disturb them. Also, horses can have any disease\/virus\/bacteria, that may be contagious to domestic horses. Please ride at your own risk.<\/li>\n<li>Trash kills. This is their home and it is your public land. Pack out what you pack in and pick up after someone else to help make a difference.<\/li>\n<li>Please report any issues of injuries or harassment or broken fences to the Salt River Wild Horse Management Group (SRWHMG)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Thank You.
