Raise a Wild Child

Do you remember the last time you noticed a stick and imagined it as something other than a stick?

MY MOMMY FAIL: WINTER GEAR

This article should be titled: Why it's awesome to be a part of HIB and get good discounts on gear. But since that's not a sexy title, I am calling it Mommy Fail.  A few months ago I went to Anchorage to visit family and while I had heaps of random gear that I threw in my bag, once I got there everything I brought seemed all wrong. Temperatures were in the teens and twenties and Mason hated eve...
