We biked up from town towards the start of the Wind Ridge hike (about a 12km bike from downtown, out along the old trails past the end of Three Sisters) and then stowed the bikes and Chariot in the trees once the going started getting a little too steep. Then we pulled out the Ergo and hiking boots and hats, and started walking up.
From our bike-stashing point it was around 4km to the high point on the ridge, with 700m of elevation gain. And the wild Moosling managed to hike a fair bit of it.
In-between throwing off his hat and refusing to put it back on again.
We made it to the top though, and then sat in the shade and ate lunch, and watched the sight-seeing helicopter tours zooming past.
As we hiked back down again, the Moosling slept nearly the entire way (and kept his hat on). And then there was icecream.
