Find A Trail - Share A Trail

August 28th, 2009

If any of you are like me, when I find a place I like to explore I tend to go there over and over again. It’s fool proof. You know what to expect, what to bring and it rarely disappoints.

But every once in a while I get the itch to find a new place…that next perfect hike or camping spot that I’ll take my kids to over and over again, where their childhood memories will be made.

I recently joined the Sierra Club Trails website. It has helped me find several new great hikes I want to take my kids on. Hikes that are right in my area. It is rapidly turning into a killer comprehensive hiking and paddling trail database.

The part I like best about it is that all the trails are put on there by the readers. And you can add pictures and give updates to previously posted trails like…”this trail had recent fire damage” or “this trail has seen lots of bear activity lately”. That way you can be up to date on every hike.

You can also join groups that talk about anything from bird watching to hiking with kids (me gusta).

Anyway, I encourage you to check it out. Look for some hikes in your area.  I have added some of my own already. *Landscape Arch in Arches National Park (That’s where these pictures I’ve posted were taken.) But don’t forget Nature For Kids has its own Forum as well, where we’d love to hear about your favorite spots and what you like to do there.
