Don't be afraid to take that little one of yours camping. My son's first trip was at 3 weeks old, we spent a week at Saline Valley in Death Valley and he's been camping every few weeks ever since. At 9 months he and I drove from Ventura, Ca to Inuvik (300 miles north of Arctic Circle) and back, a 9,000 mile trip. By 3 he had been all over Baja, Sonora, Sinaloa and all the western states. He loved every trip and at 12 years old now, is a travelling fool. As long as your little one is with you, she'll feel safe and happy.
