>>>> One of the Icelanders that rode one of our short mares was 6'7 and weighed 350 lbs....he made all the horse look small! Not saying that they are all that big, but they do seem to have some height to them.
The few Icelander men that I've seen have been around 6'0" tall plus or minus an inch or two and maybe 180-220 pounds. I would think that a 6'7", 350 pound Icelander might be about as rare as a person that size in the USA, but I don't' know. I think that Malin mentioned that the rider of that palomino in the video link Judy posted was maybe 170-ish pounds? That horse looked tiny with that rider - imagine how small he'd look with someone Cary's size - 6'2" and 235 pounds. Karen Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED]
