Best of Montana Moment: Bleu Horses are sculptor's gift to Montana

Travel Highway 287, north of Three Forks, and your eyes will certainly be drawn to a hill where you will see a herd of animals. What are they you think--elk, deer, antelope maybe? Grab the binoculars. Look closer. What you've come upon is a remarkable gift. Artist Jim Dolan sculpted and installed 39 wild horses on land that was donated to showcase his creations. He calls them the Bleu Horses. "These horses," said Jim, "are my gift to the people of Montana." The horses stretch across the hill, and from a distance, you can't quite tell what they are. "You might not know they're horses," he said. "But there's something dark up on that hillside. And all of a sudden you get close and the light hits the blue." It's true. The metal horses have been partially painted blue and when the sun hits them they shine. Jim Dolan was born and raised in California. But since he was 11-years-old he knew he wanted to live in Montana. FULL STORY: https://nbcmontana.com/news/montana-m...
