I am just wanting to know if anyone has any good tips for what to take along for our trip.
Answer
You don't say how old your infant is - and as you said infant and not baby, I would talk to your peditrician first and make sure they have had enough shots and are strong enough to go. Camping lends itself to misquitos bites, ticks and other things...
With that being said though - for slightly older babies - be sure to bring a baby backpack (for ages 6 months and up) keeps them elevated and allows for them to see everything better - also acts as a diaper bag. Jogger strollers are also a wonderful invention fo rthose trail that you can use them on.
A bassinet or portacrib - as they can't sleep in sleeping bags.
DIAPERS, DIAPERS & more DIAPERS as well as ziploc bags to seal them in while you are hiking, etc... since there may not be any garbage cans near and this will prevent a mess or smell in your diaper bag.
If you aren't breastfeeding - plenty of formula, bottles & BOTTLED water as you probably won't be able to boil water and you don't want them drinking tap water.

Baby wearing mamas, do they make a carrier for babies over 25 lbs?
Q. My son has a snuggli infant carrier and the weight limit is 25 lbs. I really like wearing him and I would like to keep doing it, but he just hit 23 lbs.
So, do you have any recommendations?

My Moby Wrap goes to 35lbs, but now that he is about 25lbs he is really starting to get too heavy for it when I do anything other then carry him around the house.
We use an Ergo when we are out and about, though its not the most attractive looking carrier, it gets the job done. It works a lot like a hiking backpack, to distribute the weight.
I had to give up the front carrier when he was around 10lbs because it killed my shoulders.
