My wife and took our two year old on five mile jaunt in the Great Smoky Mountains. About halfway through he wanted to be carried and fell asleep before we hit the thee mile point. I got to carry him 1 mile up a mountain then one mile down the other side with him snoring. You are right about the looks you get when your on the trail with a baby. Wouldn't trade it for anything though. He's hooked now and wants to "go hiking on a trail in the mountains" all the time.
@jb3al That is a glock 23. 13 plus 1. One of us always had it ready to go. We were the only people we met on the trail carrying anything at all, which was a bit of a surprise. Of course most of the hikers we met were not going in to a back country camp to stay overnight. And even though we didn't need it, we did see a good sized black bear the last day of the trip, which was a good reminder of why we brought it along.

Noticed at 8:40, the little woman is packing heat. What's her poison for the trail?
