This was our Cuyamaca trip a couple weeks ago. I only got a few pictures while riding this trip since I was on a new horse to me and then our last day’s ride was cut short, but a couple of these were fun so here ya go.

2 Weeks ago a few of us gals made one last camping trip to Cuyamaca before it closes for the year. The first day out was a bird walk with rangers near the Stonewall mine and the group camp. Rain was heading our way and we got to watch the clouds creeping in over the hills which was sort of eerie.

SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SELLING: 15 1/2" Big Horn Endurance Saddle. Built on the older style narrow tree from around the l980's. This was built to fit the smaller, narrower built Arabs back then. The skirts are only 24" long, so this saddle will fit a small horse or large pony nicely.

The bars are 6-1/2" wide with a 12" spread at the base. Seat measures 15-1/2" to the stitching on the cantle, or 15" to the padding. The saddle is built on a fiberglass covered wood tree which is hard to find.The saddle is a light 22 pounds.

The leather on this saddle is in excellent condition - still very pliable and no cracking. There are some stains, but it's an older saddle. The seat, however, became a snack for some hungry horse, but I have patched it up and added padding back to the tasty spot! Please see photos for patch.

$495, located in Wi******er, CA, and can be shipped at buyer's expense.

I just have to share another of the before and after saddles. This will be a young girl's Xmas gift from her grandparents. Total overhaul and shortened fenders to fit her short legs. Merry Christmas!

I love these jobs where there is a night and day difference in saddles before and after cleaning! This one doesn't even look like the same saddle.

09/24/2020

For Sale. Circle Y western saddle, 15-1/2” semi-quarter Ralide tree in good condition. With its short 24” skirts this saddle should fit a lot of smaller horses, including Arabs. It has a nice, secure deep seat. Leather is in good shape, although fenders have some surface cracking.

I am not sure of the age of this saddle, but I'm guessing it is from the 1980s.

Trick or Treat 🎃

My heavy duty bungee tie lead now comes with this updated version of the bull snap. The snap has a thumb latch trigger pull that makes it much easier to operate with one hand, but the snap is still just as strong!

I can make custom leads as well - special lengths for attaching to trailers and high-ties, and snaps on both ends if so desired.
