Overview

Following the birth of their daughter, Jack McClure and his wife Alana had every intention of continuing their life of adventure. After an extensive hiking trip in the desert southwest, they found that having a baby with them was no excuse to stay home and dream of adventures that could've been. With lofty ambitions, they set their sights on thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail from Canada to Mexico as a family, beginning when their daughter was 9 months old. What followed was a 1,500 mile odyssey filled not only with primeval forests and sweeping mountain vistas but also countless lullabies, hundreds of diaper changes and innumerable tears shed. Sparking warmth and inspiration, You Carry the Tent, I'll Carry the Baby paints a vivid picture of the joys and numerous stressors of one family's experience raising an infant on their terms, all while hiking twenty miles a day for months on end, in a journey that challenges them every step of the way.
