We'll meet at 9am every Tuesday in October at an Ice Age Trailhead for carrier fit checks and leave for a hike promptly at 9:15. Each hike will be about 2 miles, rain or shine (or snow). Come prepared with sunscreen, bug spray, warm layers, snacks and water, and of course your baby carriers (these will not be stroller friendly hikes)! I'll have a selection of carriers available at the trailhead if you're interested in trying something new. If the weather looks too severe I'll make a cancellation announcement by 8am Tuesday morning. Heads up, most trailheads do not have restrooms or drinking water available. Let me know if you have questions and I'll see you there!
10/14 - MADISON SEGMENT *Madison Babywearing donation event and Leslie’s birthday hike*
Parking and Trailhead at the Ice Age Trail Junction Area on McKee Rd.
Our hike of this segment starts with the pedestrian bridge over CTH-PD (McKee Rd) and ends at the tunnel under CTH-M (Pleasant View Rd). Some parts of the Ice Age Trail feel like you're in the middle of nowhere, but this segment will find us walking alongside housing subdivisions, as well as through some beautiful prairies.
For my birthday, I will be accepting donations (both financial support and your old baby carriers) for Madison Babywearing, a non-profit group that is near and dear to me. Cash, Paypal, or credit card accepted. Please make sure any carrier donations are clean and in good, useable condition. Some will stay with the group, others will be donated to the ARC Mother and Infant program. I'll also have some birthday treats for after the hike!
*No requirement to participate in fundraiser to join us on the hike, but if you could RSVP I'll have an idea of how many birthday treats to have along.;)
