Hiking with my toddler in rural Alberta
Spring has officially arrived in Alberta—bringing longer days, blooming trails, and fresh inspiration to get outside. We’re thrilled to share that Columbia Sportswear’s brand-new spring collection has launched at their West Edmonton Mall location, and it’s packed with gear designed to move seamlessly from trail to town.
I’ve been exploring in Columbia gear since I was a kid—through fishing trips, forest hikes, and family road adventures, it’s always been part of my outdoor story. Now, as a mom raising two little explorers of my own, I love that Columbia continues to deliver adventure-wear that’s not only functional but fun, durable, and ready for real-life parenting on the move.
If you haven’t visited the Columbia store at West Edmonton Mall, it’s truly an experience in itself. The space is an adventure hub—stocked with everything from hiking and camping essentials to fishing gear, sun protection, durable trail shoes, and casual layers that fit right into your everyday outdoor life.
So whether you’re heading out on a multi-day backpacking trip, planning a lakeside camping weekend, or just fitting in a riverside stroller walk, this spring launch was made to keep up with your wildest warm-weather adventures.

What’s in My Columbia Summer Adventure Mom Pack
Featuring Columbia’s Spring Launch of Summerwear for Camping, Hiking, Biking, Running & Fishing
Columbia just dropped their new spring launch, and it's everything an adventure-loving mom could ask for. From trail-tested layers to breathable summerwear, this collection is built to move with you through every season of motherhood—especially the sun-soaked, snack-packed, wildly fun days of summer.
Whether I'm packing for a weekend of camping, hitting a new family trail, or heading out for an early morning run before the kids wake up, these are the essentials I’m reaching for from Columbia’s latest drop:
A perfect spring layer—soft, cozy, and ideal for cool mountain mornings or evenings around the fire. It’s been living in my car (and on my back) all season.
Built for sunny summer days by the water or on the trail. Lightweight, breathable, and protective—my go-to piece for hiking and fishing alike.
This tank screams summer. It’s breezy, versatile, and layers beautifully with a fleece or windbreaker when temps shift.
Made for movement—whether I’m hiking, biking with the kids, or loading up the van. Comfortable enough to wear all day, tough enough for the trail.
My all-terrain go-to. These waterproof trail shoes keep up with the messiest weather, creek crossings, and toddler chases.
A summer must. Keeps the sun off my face, stays cool even when I’m chasing my boys or out on the lake.
Perfect for biking and quick trails. I stash the essentials—keys, sunscreen, trail mix—and go hands-free.
Paracutie Cropped Cargo Windbreaker
An eye-catching windbreaker for breezy days on the bike or by the water. It packs down small and wears big on style.
Hot-day approved. These shorts are light, airy, and adventure-ready for trail running or campground life.
Roomy, supportive, and built for real life with kids. I pack this with all our gear—extra layers, snacks, water, sunscreen—and it still feels good to carry.
