This is my 'little' girl. She's about 940Lbs and just barely 14.3 hands (4' 9") at the withers. She can haul my short, fat, 200 pound body up and down hills and through the woods for hours with ease. Being short makes the tight trails much easier. She's easy to ride and an excellent trail horse. When speeding up faster than a walk she doesn't trot or pace, but shifts into the 'rack'. That's an even sequenced 4 beat gate that can be as fast or faster that a good trot but without the bounce. It's like gliding. And she has a great personality. I like this rocky mountain mare a lot.
