If your family is planning a trip to Capitol Reef National Park I would highly recommend checking out the Sulphur Creek Top-Down Trail. It makes for a fun, unique hiking experience and definitely will be something your family will remember in years to come.
For families that want to adventure outdoors with their kids, the sheer number of outdoor gear that kids seem to “need” can be overwhelming. As a parent, it can be hard to know if your child really needs a certain type of gear and if they do, which of the 60 different versions you should buy.
To help you out, today I will be sharing with you a guide on what you should look for when buying kid hiking shoes. My goal is to help you feel a little less overwhelmed and a bit more confident in your buying decision. So let’s get started!
Just outside of Cannon Beach is one of our absolutely FAVORITE places to go on the Oregon Coast: Ecola State Park. We fell in love with this place on an anniversary trip to Oregon, where we spent an entire day exploring its trails and beaches in the rain. However, one trail we were disappointed to pass up was the Ecola Point to Indian Beach Trail.
My cousin, who frequents the Cannon Beach area, insisted that we had to hike the trail to Indian Beach during our stay. But when I started planning our trip I quickly learned that the trail was closed due to it being washed out at the end of 2015. I was super bummed!
Well imagine my glee when at the beginning of this year Dustin’s family announced that we would be doing a reunion on the coast. The first thing I did when I heard about our upcoming summer plans was to Google “status of Ecola Point to Indian Beach Trail”. Luckily my good friend Google didn’t let me down. I learned the trail had finally been reopened, after being closed for almost five years!
Having now hiked the “new” trail I am eager to share with you all the details. Whether you are a newcomer or veteran of Ecola State Park, this hiking guide will help you know what to expect when embarking on this fun family outing!
The struggle is real when it comes to finding a sun hat your baby or toddler will actually keep on their head. Well look no further, because today I am sharing with you my all time favorite sun hat for little kids.
Today I am excited to share with you this hiking guide. Goose Creek Falls is a very popular hiking destination in McCall, Idaho.
But did you know there are two trailheads? Check out this post to learn all the pros and cons of each trailhead and which one you should take for the most scenic hike to the falls!
Lisa Falls Trail is a wee little hike located near Sandy, Utah. While many would not classify this as a “hike” given its distance, the scenic drive up Little Cottonwood Canyon and the gorgeous waterfall at the end makes it well worth the trip.
Rocky Mouth Falls Trail is a great kid friendly hike located not too far from Little Cottonwood Canyon. It is a short, doable distance and ends at a waterfall. Now that summer is heating up this hike is sure to be a hit with your family.
Waterfall Canyon Trail is located on the east benches of Ogden, Utah. This hike is short but steep, ending at a 200-foot waterfall. Having grown up in the Ogden area this trail is interwoven into the fabric of my life. I remember the first time I hiked it with my family. I was in elementary school and we took KFC to eat at the base of the falls. The waterfall was awe-inspiring and I have since hiked it countless times. In my opinion, it is a classic.
No trip to Capitol Reef National Park is complete without a visit to Cassidy Arch. Check out this post for all the details on this unforgettable hike!
