We are installing a small dressage arena at our farm. We have two older dressage horses who are ridden 3-4 days per week. Our arena surface is ready for footing and now I have to choose between stone dust suppliers. Evidently both sell for use as arena footing, and of course there is a price difference. How does one decide? What experiences? Deciding factors? Advice? Thanks.
I would go look at it in person. Or talk to other people with arenas you like in the area and ask where theirs came from. I always put down coarse washed sand, but I have found that the product varies fairly substantially between quarries. Now I go look at it in person before making a decision.
