    Pro-tip, try clicking the Form button on the home tab. This will open a data entry form for one row at a time. It's just a different way of accomplishing the same thing, but it may be easier for some people.

    What you are doing for backpackers is INCREDIBLE. You are appreciated, so much! Your food chart (highly trimmed for my own preferences) is my GO-TO for building an ultra-high-calorie food list for a 12 day unsupported push. THANK YOU THANK YOU.

    Thank you for this incredible series of videos. There's nothing better than listening to a Carl Sagan sound alike explain the "millions and millions" of lightweight trail food choices. I'm looking forward to more videos.

    This is great thanks! Being carnivore with mostly homemade trail food I didn’t find much on the food chart 2.5 that I could use. This will be very helpful :)

    Mighty generous of you to put out this resource! I also thought of this when a few of the bars and Trader Joe's trail mixes that I eat weren't in your master sheet, and wondered if we could help you by populating your sheet with info we find on other products. It appears that your Excel sheet formulas & shading work in Google Sheets, so maybe that's an easy open platform for this. It only seems fitting that we should help you by adding to what you've built. Thanks again.

    Great idea for an upcoming series on water purification! Would love to hear your thoughts on UV (steripen) if that's not already addressed in the physical or chemical parts. Probably overkill, but I've also wondered about the efficacy of combined approaches. I'm serious that you've got the making of a great book (or series of them) with your in-depth analysis of these topics!

    • @GearSkeptic
      @GearSkeptic  3 роки тому +1

      Yes! I think combined approaches have definite advantages in certain situations. And thanks for the reminder about UV.

      Well, I’m wrapped up in the research and writing on my next series on backcountry water treatment methods. But, I would like to circle back around to food for a couple of things, including full sample menus plus some thoughts on volumetric density (instead of just caloric density). In other words, how many calories can you fit in a bear canister? Eventually 😯

    This is great!
    However, does anyone know how to create my own fields that auto calculate Protein/oz and another that calculates Carb/oz? It's been a long time since my Statistics college class...

    • @GearSkeptic
      @GearSkeptic  3 роки тому +2

      Say you want the “W” column to be protein/oz. In the W2 cell, enter the formula “=O2/D2”. Then just drag that formula all the way down the column to the bottom, which will copy it all the way, automatically applying it appropriately as it goes (meaning W3 will have “=O3/D3”, etc).
      Then just do the same with the “X” column for carb/oz using the formula “=K2/D2” in the X2 cell. And drag that one down, as well using that tiny little handle in the bottom right corner of the bounding box of the selected cell.

    Just a quick heads up: the "daily menu" part of the chart is a little broken. the fat% and sugar % aren't working for me.
    The "hiker food" chart works perfectly fine though

      I don’t have a tab for “daily menu” in my chart. Could this be one of the third-party charts I mentioned?

    Got a problem with your spreadsheet. The formulas in columns R and S refer to column G. But there is no column G. What's up with that?

    • @GearSkeptic
      @GearSkeptic  2 роки тому

      For this chart, column G is hidden. It was built only as a pre-calculation field to assist in other formulas.
      If you prefer to see it, you can unhide the column.
