SUMMER, SPRING, FALL
& WINTER GEAR
SUMMER
1. Light weight riding gloves.
2. Hat or helmet. (Riding helmets are available.)
3. Bring a long-sleeved shirt to protect against sun and wind burn.
4. Stretchy leggings or loose-fitting pants for easy mounting and dismounting and comfort in the saddle.
5. Riding boots or shoes with a smooth (but not slick) sole and a low heel. Tennis shoes are okay as long as they have a dip in the arch area which creates a bit of a heel.
6. Sunscreen, lip balm, sunglasses.
7. Smart phone or camera.
8. Two 20 or 24 oz. sports water bottles.
If you can, refridgerate one and freeze the other bottle. No screw cap bottles please, as they are hard to manage while on horseback.
We have water bottle holders and accessory pockets on the saddles. We also have leather "toggles" to tie clothing to the saddle.
​
Note: We have spares of just about everything if you do not have the above mentioned items. Call Sueanne to discuss: (435) 901-4644

WINTER
1. Gloves: Generally ski gloves are too thick and you can't feel the reins. Double layer polar fleece gloves are better.
2. Bring silk glove liners or one size fits all stretchy glove liners to wear with them.
3. Hand and and toe warmers.
4. Warm hat (benie or skull cap) that covers the ears, and/or an ear band and neck gator.
5. Sunglasses or snow goggles are important in case of snow or wind.
6. Layers on your top and bottom work best, and will keep you warm. NO COTTON ANYWHERE ON YOUR BODY, (including jeans) because when you perspire your fingers and toes will freeze. Wear clothing that will wick away the moisture. Long Johns and ski pants are ideal. Sheepskins on all of the saddles add aditional warmth and security in the saddle.
7. Warm boots that are designed for the snow. Sorrels work okay but are not ideal. No leather or tennis shoes. Your feet will freeze.
8. Socks: Wear two layers. The first layer is a ski sock liner which will wick away the moisture and the second layer is wool, smart wool, or polar fleece. Again, no cotton or cotton blends.
9. Lip balm, sunscreen.
10. Smart phone or camera.
11. Ski helmet or riding helmet if you have your own. (Riding helmets are provided.)
12. Wind and water proof jacket.
13. A 20 or 24 oz. sports water bottle. No screw cap tops as these are hard to manage with gloves on a horse in the winter!
We have water bottle holders and accessory pockets on the saddles. We also have leather "toggles" to tie clothing to the saddle.
We have spares of just about everything in case you can't bring the above mentioned items. Please call Sueanne to discuss if this is the case: (435) 901-4644
