Horse Markings
Markings on horses are usually distinctive white areas on an otherwise dark base coat color. Most horses have some markings, and they help to identify the horse as a unique individual. Markings are present at birth and do not change over the course of the horse's life. Most markings have pink skin underneath most of the white hairs, though a few faint markings may occasionally have white hair with no underlying pink skin. Markings may appear to change slightly when a horse grows or sheds its winter coat, however this difference is simply a factor of hair coat length; the underlying pattern does not change. On a gray horse, markings visible at birth may become hidden as the horse turns white with age, but markings can still be determined by trimming the horse's hair closely, then wetting down the coat to see where there is pink skin and black skin under the hair. Recent studies have examined the genetics behind white markings and have located certain genetic loci that influenc ...

Baldface Mountain
Baldface Mountain is a conical butte-like summit in the West-Central Interior of British Columbia, Canada. It is east of Itcha Lake and northeast of the community of Anahim Lake in Range 3 Coast Land District. The name of the mountain was adopted 7 February 1947 on topographic map 93/SW, as identified in the 1930 BC Gazetteer. Prior to this, the name ''Mount Baldface'' appeared on maps. Geology Baldface Mountain is a trachytic– phonolitic volcanic cone in the Anahim Volcanic Belt that was active 2.37 million years ago. A locally extensive field of volcanic cones is centered on Baldface Mountain and is judiciously called the Baldface Mountain volcanic field (BMVF). Baldface Mountain is the largest edifice in this volcanic field and is one of the few BMVF volcanoes known to have produced felsic rocks. A small trachytic knob just south of Baldface Mountain has a slightly older age of 2.52 million years and is the oldest known BMVF feature. The close proximity between ...

North Baldface
North Baldface is a mountain in the township of Bean's Purchase, New Hampshire in the eastern White Mountains. It gets its name from its steep barren southeast face. Along with the neighboring summit South Baldface, it is a popular hiking destination, especially in the summer. The two mountains are ascended by the Slippery Brook, Baldface Knob, Baldface Circle, Meader Ridge, and Bicknell Ridge trails. Nearby mountains and drainage South Baldface is located directly to the southeast, along the Baldface Circle Trail. To the west is the valley of the Wild River with the Carter-Moriah Range beyond. Mount Meader, a summit, lies to the northeast. The east side of the mountain drains via Charles Brook into the Cold River watershed, to the Saco River and thence the Atlantic Ocean; the southwest side drains into the East Branch Saco River then into the Saco; and the northwest side drains into the Wild River, a tributary of the Androscoggin River and ultimately the Kennebec River ...
