Re: [RC] Old Dominion Trail /Bosana Boots Questions - Barbara McCrary
I heard my son-in-law comment about the Bosanna boots
he had on his horse last year for a 50-miler. The trails were pretty
mellow, but the horse has some foot issues that require boots for his
protection. My S-I-L said the boots are quite bulky and caused the horse
to be less sure-footed on narrow sections of trail. Of course he was
riding a 16.2 hand half Warmblood horse, too. Big monster, but gorgeous
and capable of doing 100 miles.

Boots Questions
I keep hearing that the OD trail has lots of
rocks. For the 100 mile riders are there more rocks on the first parts
of the trail or towards the end? Are they slab rock boulders or sharp
edged shale type? How much gravel road or hard surface is
there?
If you had to guess, what percentage of the trail
has rocks? Is there much boggy trail?
We are considering using Bosana Boots on this
ride. Anybody use those?
