Where Is Mustang Monument?

It’s about 30 miles south of Wells, NV on the east side of Highway 93.

The National Data Viewer puts it in the Snow Water Lake Allotment.

The Elko County Assessor indicates it’s APN 008-080-001, owned by Tommy LLC, a legal entity controlled by Madeleine Pickens and probably named after one of her dogs.

The Operator Information Report at RAS ties Mustang Monument to these allotments:

  • 2704016 – SPRUCE GRAZING ASSOCIATION LLC – SPRUCE
  • 2703859 – SAVING AMERICA’S MUSTANGS – SNOW WATER LAKE, WARM CREEK

The Allotment Master Report gives management status, acreage and active AUMs.

The Authorization Use Report gives livestock types and season of use.

Pickens acquired base properties tied to these allotments and offered to take wild horses out of BLM pens and put them back on public lands previously designated for livestock.

Initially the BLM agreed but later reneged.
