So where are the pens for the horses?
Outside the border?

Are the horses still free range on the
"horse reserve" or whatever it's called
that's inside the test range/bomb range/A51 border?

I'm amazed at whatever relationship there is between
Medlin and the base. The base can take land as they
see the need yet they still can't take away the
grazing rights for Steve's cattle?

The horses roam freely on the range. I gather they stay in a general
area since they know where to find water.  I've seen wild horses
around the TTR, Cold Creek, Delamar, and north of highway 6.

Someone I know got to ride with Steve Medlin to Bald Mountain, though
I don't recall if the border was crosses. Steve had a radio to notify
the base of his presence. The person along for the ride didn't note
much about the radio other than it was old looking. I would guess the
base gave Steve some simple FM radio and have a repeater just for his
use. I can't see the base giving him a MRK, with out wothout
encryption.

It may be the BLM wants to protect their turf, which is why Steve
Medlin gets to go on the range. Or he has a contract with the BLM and
the BLM wants to honor the contract.

It looks like Steve owns his homesite.

There are plenty of hits on government websites for Steve. Here is one
regarding water in the Tikapoo (sic) Valley:
