Getting my 5 year old into backpacking, so we're easing into it by visiting state parks locally in North Carolina. So far trips to Pilot Mountain and Hanging Rock have gone well, so planning some trips now to my ol stomping grounds in Western Carolina

That's awesome! How does your kiddo do on the trails? I've done day hikes with kids that age, but haven't been brave enough to try an overnight.
