Re: [RC] arena measurement? - Zephyr Arabians

My favorite is 100' x 300', 40' x 60' oval is what I

it's too small, but beggars can't be choosers, 

I would love an arena in the 100' x 200' range (or
more!), but we have very limited space so we installed
a 72' x 140' which is almost exactly the size of a
small dressage court (20m x 40m).  We also have a 60'
round pen.

Footing is the big issue for me, what do y'all think
about just plain dirt? Sand? 

We have rock-hard ground, topped with compressed DG,
and then 2-3" of sand.  And it's fantastic!  It also
is rideable the day after a rain.
