a fall hike + a giveaway with LÄRABAR!

i feel so lucky to live where we do this time of year. the mountains are just next door, and with a short little drive we are in a fall paradise. life has been *crazy* busy, so we decided to make time for a little getaway the other weekend and drove up to the mountains for a little hike.

so beautiful! i could have stared at this view forever

one of the most important parts of hiking for me are the snacks! there's nothing worse than being at the top of the mountain when hunger pains and irritability sets in and there is no snack to cure it. there's also nothing worse than running out of water. once, scofield and i had a 4 mile hike down a mountain when we realized that we were out of water. we basically ran the whole way back in order to get to water as fast as we could. we learned a valuable lesson we will never forget - always pack extra water.

for as long as i can remember, LÄRABAR has been my granola bar of choice. i love that there are so few ingredients in them, making them less processed and just about as natural as you can get in a granola bar. there is no added sugar, but all of the sugar and flavor comes from dried fruit. so, as you can imagine, i was so excited when they asked me to partner with them to offer a giveaway to you.

there are so many delicious flavors available - carrot cake, fudge brownie, peanut butter cookie, key lime pie, lemon bar, pecan pie, cherry pie, and the list goes on. this is not something you don't want to miss...

so now for the good stuff: to enter, visit the LÄRABAR product page and leave a comment below answering one of these questions:

- which flavor of LÄRABAR are you most excited to try, and why?
- how would LÄRABAR compliment your outdoor adventures?

the giveaway closes on 11/16, wherein one reader will be chosen! and don't forget to go here to get a coupon for your next LÄRABAR purchase.

 happy hiking, and good luck!
