Mountain Babies

I started this blog to start a community of mammas and pappas who are raising kids with an appreciation of the outdoors, inspired by a recent post by a dear friend.  Getting out to explore with children can often be a challenge of finding the right place or trail that kids can enjoy, having the right gear to make the experience go smoothly, and making the time to get out.  I am lucky to live in a beautiful mountain town surrounded by amazing wilderness.  However, the first summer with my baby I had no idea what gear I would need and how to pack less than a minivan full of gear for a 1 mile hike.  I thought maybe I could get my other mountain mammas and city mammas who love the mountians to join me in discussing great places to hike with kids and the best gear to take for adventures.  I often feel very isolated living in the woods, but my online community of friends keeps me connected and I value their advice.
Now I gotta go outside, its a beautiful day!
