She's a big girl so im wondering if we would still use the hiking backpack thing to put her in? i dont know if she would be ok walking because where we are going is pretty steep and a stroller seems like too much of a hassle. shes 1 1/2 but shes really tall, people think that shes 2 or 3. im just wondering what we should do about our hiking situation! backpack, stroller or just let her walk? thank you!
it's not like we're hiking up this huge mountain. we're living in Turkey and we're going to snake castle..its just too steep to drive up so we would have to walk. people take their children hiking all the time...why do you think they make back carriers and strollers for those kinds of things?
Beth: Where would I would a kelty backpack?? we have to do ALL of our shopping online and i searches on babies r us but no luck!! :)
oops, never mind i found it! thank you!
 
I have a 19 month old girl and we take her hiking all the time...skiing too for that matter. We still use her backpack but it is a special sport one by kelty. She loves it! Yours should have a weight rating on it or on the warranty. If you can't find it you could probably search for specs online. If she fits in it comfortably it will be just fine. My husband packs about 65lbs when we go backpacking so I'm sure she weighs less than that lol!
