Making Sand Wash Basin Self-Sustaining
WE DID IT

THREE MAJOR PROJECTS WERE COMPLETED IN 2024!

In June of 2023 Colorado Governor Polis signed Senate Bill 23-275, the Colorado Wild Horse Project bill. Within that bill each Colorado Herd Management Area was giving funds for fertility control and range improvements. Wild Horse Warriors for Sand Wash Basin received over$94,000. This amount was based on estimates that we had given the State on projects we would like to complete.

Wild Horse Warriors for Sand Wash Basin was awarded $94,705 from Senate Bill 23-275.

The Senate Bill appropriated these funds to be paid through the Colorado Department of Agriculture with the projects being completed by July of 2025.

Our original request included funds for an additional Kiosk and additional signage in Sand Wash Basin. When the final updated bids were received these projects were put on hold. Wild Horse Warriors felt it was more important to make improvements to the water sources.

In November we completed the final project at SheepPen Pond.

The final project costs were:

Coffeepot Springs $34,824

Sheepherder Springs $34,824

SheepPen Pond $60,475

Totaling 111,684.00

Wild Horse Warriors paid the additional $16,000 from your donations THANK YOU

Your donations have helped us complete many projects for a healthier range for wild horses. Younk you, without your donations done of the previous projects would have been possible.

PROTECTING THE WILD HORSES OF SAND WASH BASIN
The wild horses of Sand Wash Basin will continue to need your support as the seasons change. Each time there is a change in the elected or appointed officials there is a change in the beliefs surrounding the wild horses. It is up to us, the American People to make sure that our wild horses continue to live on a safe, healthy range.

Over the last several years your support has helped Wild Horse Warriors raise funds to haul water, repair dams, install solar panels, and install a fence on Highway 318. All of these projects were funded %100 by donations. Thank you.
As we move forward the wild horses will have continued needs. We will be closing our other fund raisers and will be using this to fund raiser.

Donations will be used for water sources, signage, fencing needs, trail cameras to track our wild horses and other wild life in Sand Wash Basin, DNA testing and the education of our followers and visitors to Sand Wash Basin.

By having funds available in the past we were able to complete some of the projects listed without having to wait to raise the funds. In 2020 when we needed to haul money we had funds available and the day we asked the BLM if we could haul water and were giving permission, we hauled water that day. Having a reserve is important for the health and well being of the wild horses.
Your support has been amazing. Without your donations we could not have helped protect our wild horses in Sand Wash Basin.

Thank you

Wild Horse Warriors for Sand Wash Basin needs your help to raise funds to help save the lives of our wild horses and the motorists on highway 318. Every year we lose at least one wild horse to a vehicle / wild horse accident. Some years we lose several. After several years of asking Colorado Department of Transportation to install a fence, they have finally agreed to let Wild Horse Warriors install a fence. The fence will cost roughly $100,000, for 8 miles. If there are any remaining funds left after the installation of the fence they will be used for other fence, water or safety of the wild horses of Sand Wash Basin.

We cannot do it without your help.
Every little bit helps. Thank you for your donation and support. The Community Foundation of Northwest of Colorado is our fiscal agent. You may also mail a donation to

We are so excited to share the photos with you that show the water that is now in Ash Pond, one of the ponds we repaired this summer.
A few days ago we had a serious early winter storm in Sand Wash Basin. We had lots of snow and rain in the northern areas. As the rain and snow melt off run down the draws it added tons of water to Ash Pond! This is so exciting.
Ash Pond has only held a very small amount of water for several years. The drainage that filled the pond and cut a new drainage that bypassed the pond. With the work that WHW had done this summer we restructured the drainage into the pond, added height to the dam and added a culvert for overflow. The results are amazing. This will open a whole new area for the wild horses to graze throughout the summer.

. Thank you for your continued support of our efforts to keep our wild horses healthy, safe and our range healthy.

Donations will be used for water sources, signage, fencing needs, trail cameras to track our wild horses and other wild life in Sand Wash Basin and along the highway, DNA testing and the education of our followers and visitors to Sand Wash Basin.
