OPINION

JAMES M. BURNS, Chief Judge:

A. Introduction

As dusk turned to dark October 14, 1977, Rocky, a frisky but otherwise undistinguished Forest Service pack horse, trotted eastward in the westbound lane of Highway 20, where he encountered two westbound motor vehicles. The first, a truck, fortunately for its driver (and for Rocky) swerved and avoided contact. The second vehicle carried plaintiffs, Mr. and Mrs. Bild-erback, returning from an outing in the forest nearby. Unfortunately for the Bild-erbacks (and for Rocky), a head-on collision occurred, resulting in:

1) Injuries to the Bilderbacks
