I was hoping someone might have some suggestions on short, relatively easy backpacking trips that a pregnant woman in her first or second trimester might reasonably complete.
My husband grew up backpacking but I haven't done much. To give you an idea of my endurance level before the pregnancy, my first and only backpacking trip was to a meadow just beyond the "Y". Short but relatively steep. I was only carrying probably 25 pounds as it was just an over-nighter and I did just fine.
We'd really like to get some use out of our backpacking gear before the baby comes since we decided we'll be car campers for at least a couple of years until the little one is ready to backpack with us.
We're in Provo so somewhere not too far from here would be great. Uintas, Arches area, I'm open to suggestions. Thanks!
