Have Saddle-Will Travel is the creation of Don West - an adventurer,
traveler, writer, and teacher. A nationally known and respected professional horseman,
speaker/clinician, and "equine success coach", Don has also taught camping and
backpacking, cross country skiing, mountain
biking, rock climbing, and mountaineering. In the course of his various outdoor
adventures he has explored the four
corners of the Earth. HS-WT was conceived in 1986, when Don designed
the first saddles built in North America for the comfort of naturally gaited,
short backed horses, including Paso Fino, Peruvian Paso, and Spanish
horses. His articles on low-impact horse camping, horsemanship, and
other outdoor skills have appeared in many popular magazines. Living
and learning in the out-of-doors has been his vocation, recreation, and
passion.
Have Saddle-Will Travel, Inc.'s President, General Manager, and Chief Honcho is
Maria West - Don's wife and partner. Maria is the business
woman and computer jockey who rides herd on all the practical aspects of the business;
both the office, production, and sales.
Don and Maria love horses, especially smooth riding naturally gaited
horses, trail riding, and backcountry low impact horse camping. Their goal was
to create a company that would make previously unavailable products for today's
trail riders, right at their home at West Gait Equine Learning Center, near
Fruita, in wonderful Western Colorado, USA. They practice what they preach, design and manufacture what
they need, and use what they make.
