Define all-weather menage

[bumblelion]

Basically, as title! Just write anything that comes to mind!!!! Brainstorm away!!

Mine is descried as all weather. Its silica sand, fibre and rubber crumb. It was only with the heaviest snow last winter that I couldn't use it without grading it first (to clear the snow). It didnt freeze solid all winter, however it is in a very sheltered spot .It has good drainage etc and can be used whatever the weather. I think there are varying definitions however like some may consider a manege that becomes useable after grading (in cold conditions) as all weather.

One that doesn't flood after it's had £20,000 spent on new drainage and surface!! But it STILL does!!! Luckily it was the menage at work so not my money

one that is rideable in all weathers.

^^ this....but most livery yards seem to describe their arenas as all weather when they are anything but
