Wild Oats used to make a bulk cajun trail mix (had pumpkin seeds and other assorted chex mix type stuff heavily spiced) that I used for lunch in the backcountry. Fantastic, but the last couple of years they stopped carrying it. :( Mel There are 10 kinds of people, those that understand Binary and those that don't. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

Fantastic, but the last couple of years > they stopped carrying it. :( I've come to hate them raisins in ziplock with on-board snack, and walnuts, and dried apricots, and dates. Old cheese works, bacon (without actual meat) works too. Fruit salads in 5-oz cans with soda-pop style ring at the top are good. Is there anything else that can be carried in a trip longer than a weekend, where energy bars and sandwiches aren't practical? *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
