One thing I found most older hikers have in common is they do not want to eat the same old thing every day while hiking. This book is a treasure, compiling recipes from outdoor experts, celebrities, and industry leaders. Just reading the book made me want to get into the kitchen and out on the trail.
I love the sections of what works and what doesn't work! The book covers cooking basics, food drying techniques and even trail food lore. Do you know what pemmican is? How about some Dudleys for breakfast? How can you go wrong with wild food feasting or tempting beverages? My favorite section is "great food, less work!"
I doubt that your traveling will be boring after reading this book - here's to the trail gourmets!
