An "Adelita" of an escaramuzas team ," Spanish for "skirmishes," walks her horse after their presentation in a rodeo in Oaxtepac, Morelos State, Mexico, on September 10, 2011. Groups of eight women or girls perform tricky formations on galloping horses, riding sidesaddle, wearing cowboy hats and full-skirted costumes alluding to the 19th century. Several team members also race their horse to a dramatic sliding stop in the charro arena, or lienzo, in a move mirroring the men's event.
