Jean,
glad you survived your adventure!
I rode in my Sorel packers a few days a go, but switched my reg saddle for
one with HUGE 'big guy' stirrups, as I had the same thoughts. Glad I did
too, as my filly really had the snow snorts.
This topic made me think of something...we were going thru a box of old tack
in the barn, and in there was a really sturdy pair of tapadero style
stirrups.MY boyfriend Dave made them when he was an outfitter in Colorado.
They are hardly used, and they are not the type that drag on the ground, but
they are big enough to get a heavier than normal boot in, and if you even
rode with your regular boots on, they keep your feet really warm & dry. We
were going to relegate them to the Garage Sale pile, but if someone on the
list wants them, I would be happy to send 'em off for $20.00/wich includes
shipping anywhere in US.
Karen in N. Nevada
