I would definately like to see more videos on how you make your own backpacking meals. I would like to learn how, seems like a cheaper and healthier way to go.
you all probably dont give a shit but does anybody know a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost my account password. I love any tricks you can give me
@Curtis Robert I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I love your videos! Where do you do most of your shopping, especially for the snacks and the homemade trail mix? Can you find most of it at Trader Joe’s and/or on Amazon, or are you lucky enough to find stuff at your local chain grocery store? I’m 99% sure we live in different states, but I’m fascinated by those snacks, and I have GOT to make that fruity trail mix ASAP. Stay safe out there!
I do most of my grocery shopping at Sprouts and Trader Joes! Both of these stores have a really good selection of nuts and dried fruits which are perfect for making homemade trail mixes. I live in Utah, so I'm not sure if there are Sprouts grocery stores in other states, but it has a great bulk section. Thank you so much for watching! I hope you enjoy the fruity trail mix - it's one of my favorites!
Hey James! I'm not sure how long it would take to go bad. Even though the packaging does say to keep it refrigerated, I take it on trips that are a few days long and I've never had any problems, but I suspect that the longer and hotter the backpacking trip, the faster it will go bad.
Do you buy the cheese refrigerated? Is it okay to have it sit out in the heat for so long? I would love to bring cheese on the trail but worried about getting sick
I do buy the refrigerated cheese, and it does clearly say to "keep refrigerated" on the packaging, but I take it on shorter 2 to 4 day trips anyway. Basically, pack cheese at your own risk! I always buy low-moisture, hard cheeses like cheddar cheese and parmesan. I do not take soft cheeses like goat cheese or brie, they would go bad quickly. I've never had any problems with the hard cheeses going bad on my shorter trips, but it's definitely possible. Storing the cheese properly and reducing the surface area that's exposed to air will help keep it fresh longer. Also, if I'm going on a really hot, humid, and/or long trip, I skip the cheese. If you're worried about getting sick, freeze-dried cheese is a great option! It's crunchy, salty, cheesy, full of protein, and it has a much longer shelf-life. I like the brand Moon Cheese. It makes an awesome trail snack!
Nice video! I do lots of day hikes but I've never done an overnighter - in the plans for this summer! I'll follow your ideas on food. Plus maybe some chocolate, which will melt lol.
0:49 I love the highly dramatic triple zoom in! It really -Drives- -The point- -Home-!

It sure is! I'm working on creating tons of resources on dehydrating, including an entire digital course! Stay tuned! 🤗

@Curtis Robert It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D
Just stumbled onto your channel. Good info!
Really nice that you showed what was left over too!
Those are great food ideas - can use those suggestions whether hiking or on canoe trips - awesome 🎉
Fun, informative video. Thanks blessings
Apparently you know what you are doing great guess if you needed another day you had it
How! How I ask!?
This is so cool! I had no idea you could make your own dehydrated meals like that!

Love this!
love the channel good info THANKS !!!!
We pack vegan food and love our snack treats too! Have you tried sour Skittles? Our fav!
Really looking forward to the ebook!
This is great info and I never even considered making my own freeze dry meals before. Great idea!
Glad it was helpful! It's a lot of fun to make homemade backpacking food!
Humm isss
Great info!
Are you eating your cheese and string cheeses warm while out backpacking?
Very nice videos, thanks for sharing ...
Thanks for watching!
nice video ;) Trail mix is a classic. nice little bags too, i'll check those out :)
I know, I LOVE trail mix!! 😊
What are those bags you used with your home made meals? Are they vacuum sealed?
They are mylar bags with an oxygen absorber.
Where do you get those silver bags for dehydrated meals that you can just pour hot water into?
So how much water do you need for all that food
i am new to backpacking, what kind of dehydrator do you recommend, brand size???
Are you eating directly out of your reusable bags? Are they able to handle “freezer bag” style back country cooking. Thanks
The reusable bags I showed in this video cannot handle boiling water. I pack a lightweight backpacking bowl to eat out of instead!
beautifullovely‼️
String cheese? How long should that last?
