They are 9 and 11, time flies! It’s a tough hike to carry a kid, so I think your approach is a good one. Have fun!

Your kids must be 9 and 11 now! We are taking our 4 and 7 year old girls to Monadnock next weekend. I think we will take the same approach as you and just see how far they make it. However, I don’t think we can carry our 45 lb 4 yr old on those steep trails very far, so we’ll just have to see how she does! Thanks again!

I highly recommend Monadnock – it can be crowded but there are beautiful views above the treeline. It’s amazing what climbing a mountain can do for the confidence of a child – they were both so proud to have nearly made it to the top!

Congratulations on your maiden voyage, it’s great to see parents getting their kids out like that. We are going to have to check-out that mountain some time.
