Very light and comfortable to use

We purchased this before our trip in the Canadian rockies and used it extensively on hikes there this summer. It is lightweight - very easy for our son to get in and out of - and easy to adjust. This is a simple and elegant carrier, nothing fancy. It has only one storage zipped pocket - which was sufficient - when carrying a 25 pound toddler, you really don't want to carry much else! The hood/rain cover is an absolute *must* in my opinion, to purchase alongwith the carrier. We used it all the time! The only downside I see with this is that if the child falls asleep it is not very convenient, as there is no head/shoulder support. We tried adjusting the hood and straps to get him to rest his head comfortably but it wasn't ideal.
