I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Can this jacket fit a 10 year old? I would think so as long as the 10 year old is an average size kid. My son is 8 and average wt./ht. (62lbs./52") and it fits nicely with plenty of room for him to grow. His 9 year old friend borrowed it for a short boat ride, bigger kid probably pushing the 90 lb. wt. limit and it was very snug and looked uncomfortable.

What is the weight limit? It states 50 - 90 lbs. I have a tall and large 5 year old who's 57 lbs and it fits pretty well with plenty of room to grow.

Does it have the leg strap that goes between their legs? No it did not. I returned it because it runs very small. My son is 80lbs, 11 years old. It was too short and small on him and too tight around his chest also.

Wondering about the color? The first few photos show lighter aqua type color and the last pic shows darker jewel tones. Which is accurate? Lighter aqua color.
