About EqueStep
Months of research preceded the decision by Green Mountain Horse Association to replace its' four acres of arena footing in order to give competitors the best possible experience.
The result is EqueStep, created masterfully by St. Pierre Inc. of Charlestown, NH, in consultation with Brian McNeil of E=MC Arenas. This successful equestrian footing product is a blend of processed, native sand and geotextile fiber imported from Austria.
The sand provides superior drainage, while the geotextile additive retains elasticity and bounce. The combination produces a firm, yet springy, dust reducing surface that is safe for your horses and your property!
EqueStep is exceptionally versatile and good for most every need. It has been tested in conditions ranging from torrential rain, wind, drought-like stretches, and 100 degree days.

A. Yes, for all disciplines.
