Hi Jean,
I tried working with Crest Ridge, and, in fact, tried one of their saddles.
They were very helpful, but, after sending many pictures to them, we
determined the saddle was not a fit, and they told me they could not fit my
horse with any of their saddles.
I was disappointed, because I really liked their saddles. I visited a
dealer in Missouri and looked at the different styles, and eventually had
them ship an Ovation to me. It was not wide enough. (It doesn't come in
the extra wide tree.) The workmanship and quality is really there with the
Crest Ridge saddles. I wish I could have made it work.
Laura

I was looking at the Timber Ridge on their website. I thought their
saddles looked good.
I also looked at Crest
Ridge http://crestridgesaddlery.com/index.shtml. they also make a
Draft
saddle., and the Draft Sonata SRO5, which is Cordura and leather, looks
like it would be a nice lower priced saddle.
.If shipping to Alaska weren't so costly I would probably try the Timber
Ridge and Crest Ridge saddles! But I guess I'll just stick with my
several
Ortho-Flex saddles!
Jean in Fairbanks, Alaska, where we finally got enough snow for the skiers
and dog mushers: 8-16" over the weekend.
Thanks to all of you who sent me information about western saddles that
they
liked. I am still searching, and have found a company that thinks they
can
make a saddle for me. It is Timber Ridge Saddlery. Has anyone had any
experience with this saddle company?
