As a mother of two young children who loves the outdoors, I try to get out for a hike any time I can.\u00a0 My husband has usually been the pack goat for our oldest son, and I have been able to pack my daughter on numerous hikes.\u00a0 This past year, my daughter has grown out of her baby pack.\u00a0 We tried putting her in the larger pack and letting my son hike up the mountain.\u00a0 Needless to say there was a lot of complaining on that \u201clong\u201d 1-mile hike.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We tried several different methods of carrying the children and finally decided that we would like to find another child carrier to use until our oldest was really old enough to move along the trail for the entire hike.<\/p>\n

I tried on the larger child carrier my husband was using and HATED it!\u00a0 It was so heavy without a child, and the child sat so far away from me that it felt like they were going to pull me over backwards.\u00a0 We went to our local outdoor retailer and tried on several different types of packs, all had the same feel.\u00a0 Way too top heavy and bulky for what I wanted.\u00a0 We needed a transition pack, where the child\u2019s weight would sit nicely on my hips and not pull me over with their weight.<\/p>\n
We had heard rumor that the ERGObaby packs were coming out for the outdoor enthusiasts too.\u00a0 We had heard great things about them and thought we would give them a try.\u00a0 The moment I put one on, I was in heaven!\u00a0 This was the answer to our problem, and many more problems for that matter.\u00a0 The ergo baby pack was originally designed for babywearing.\u00a0 You can learn more about babywearing on ergobaby.com, but one thing that Karen Frost, one of the main designers of the carrier said is that, \u201cbabywearing has always made it safe and easy for mothers to stay productive while tending to the needs of their babies.\u201d\u00a0 So not only did I find a good hiking pack for my little one, but I have used it to go to the mall, to the park, and several other places.<\/p>\n
I have the organic ERGObaby carrier.\u00a0 The only down side my daughter and I felt while hiking was the pack was not very breathable.\u00a0 They have come out with two new types of carriers since that have addressed this issue.\u00a0 One is a performance carrier, and they have had a sport carrier.\u00a0 They have great accessories for you and your child too.\u00a0 Check them out at ergobaby.com<\/a><\/p>\n Here are a few specs for the organic ERGObaby carrier.\u00a0 This is the one I have.\u00a0 Check the site for the performance carrier, coming out soon!
