My son can do 8 miles of pretty tough trail backpacking. Many times he wants to go further but I try to stop before he is worn out completely so we can fish or bird watch, chase frogs, you know kid stuff. So my question is how far can a athletic 10 year old go safely? We are planning several long trips and I would like to plan appropriately. So what's your opinion? Thanks!
