@devontodetroit That's the most retarded comment I've seen in weeks. Well done.

@devontodetroit No need. You do it naturally already.

@@RenegadeShepTheSpacer what did he say

For me its Salami, Cheese and wraps. It has been my on trail lunch for years now and it always just tastes sooo fucking good.

Yes! Navigation, safety, etc

@@slvcons7745 why?

Start smaller. See if there are national parks in your area, or just marked, easy trails that you can hike over one or two days and spend a night sleeping outside. That way you can test your gear, and get a feel for what you are missing.

Yesss!!

Just finished my first backpacking trip, about 40 miles, up a mountain pass and then back down over 4 days. Went with more experienced friends. We had trail mix, which I largely neglected. I think I would eat a more savory/spicy trail mix. One of my friends packed me unsalted nuts for trail mix which was personally difficult for me to consume frequently. Ate a cliff bar every day, which was good for energy but doesn’t really satiate hunger completely. Also had these chocolate/nut bars, also low sodium. I ended up getting quite sick the first two nights, I think in large part because I didn’t consume enough sodium and calories. We had slim Jim’s of a different brand. Beef jerky would also have been great, although it’s pricier. My other friend brought me flavored tuna and chicken salad in these little sealed pouches that we squeezed onto these large crackers to eat like a sandwich. I loved eating these. It’s important to eat enough calories, and though he says anything will taste good when you’re hungry and tired enough, your body can get depleted before you get to that stage. So for me, I found food that’s salty, satiating, satisfying, taste good etc. is very important. I only packed 3 tuna pouches, so one day I had to go without it, and I definitely missed it. Same friend brought salami, cheese, and triscuits, which was great. We also had cheez-its which were great. For dinner: First night was Ramen. It certainly taste good at the end of the day, but be sure you’re getting enough calories. The first night, I was very sick and it wasn’t going down easy. I think it took me like 3 hours to eat-not exaggerating. I would have just gone to sleep, but my friends had me sit and finish it along with a powdered Gatorade drink. Second night was mac’n’cheese. Again, this would have tasted great at the end of the night, but I was sick again. Plus, one of my friends poured some salmon from a sealed pouch into my mac’n’cheese which made it even harder to consume. I ate less than half of what they gave me before I refused to eat more and went to bed. Third and final night I actually felt good. We had Ramen again, but added dehydrated potatoes, peanut butter, and siratcha. It looked kinda gross, but it tasted great and felt good and filling. Things I would do next time: -hot breakfast like oats -i think more peanut butter would be good. Peanut butter crackers, those peanut butter pretzel bites, something like that. I think adding pb to many things can make it more calorie dense-certainly worked well with the siratcha to make the ramen great and calorie dense. -savory/spicy/salty trail mix -maybe beef jerky and dried mango if I feel like spending -cheese, salami, crackers (bring my own) -pack bigger lunches: i would have done two of the tuna pouches/day for me. I was always hungry after one and depleted by the end of the day. Everyone is different. Not everyone cares about taste as much as I do. One of my friends was fairly content to eat trail mix for lunch. But for my next trip, I want all my food to have flavor. I want to be excited about eating.

And hopefully we all as well will go on some hikes.

fully agree :). can't wait to see the next video by Kraig

Just go lol, it's not a public place

YASSSS

I mean does lockdown extend to nature in some countries?!

That is because if you are walking for more than a few days most food will spoil or is too bulky, heavy or inefficient in terms of energy. Dehydrated food and nuts, rice, oats, pasta, dried fruit, chocolate, tuna/salmon in pouches will last and provides the energy you need. I use chili sauce, dried parmesan to pep things up.

person X Yeah, I don’t think conforming is to some standard of health or “good food” is so important when you’re hiking everyday. Your food is going to have to deviate some from what you normally eat. Apples, for example, aren’t particularly dense in calories or nutrition, and they are fairly heavy and spacious. We put our food in bear canisters (California) over night do you have to be weary of space. But an apple on day one would be great.

@@seanmatthewking I have always wondered about having to use a bear canister and how much space that gives you. Seems limiting if necessary. I haven't hiked in bear country yet (except Smoky Mountains where I got 100 ft down the track before a sow and two cubs rocked up onto the track - hike over!)

I eat dates on swine hikes but yesterday I tried pitted prunes and they were so tasty 😋

So true guys

Same!

Lol!

Yeah mine is too. Guess it did...

Great feedback. We would love for you to watch some of our videos and share some feedback if you can :)

Lol

just take infinite supplies with ya

p3t3r I actually don’t hike at all; been following Kraig since his wedding film days but maybe I’ll try a hike who knows

@@WillStinton give it a try its pretty sick. you dont need to go that far to have fun!

p3t3r you’re right, I just gotta suck it up and get out there

i guess that happened in Nepal

Can you please elaborate ?

Daal baat 😂😂

Hahaha

I'm pretty sure there's only one way

@@xx-ug9hn trust me....there isn't. We hikers can be sooooo creative 😁

Bring a trowel to dig a cathole or sit over a log. In some places (like the desert) you even get to "pack it out". Not as bad as it sounds.

Lmao!

Chairman of the Board don’t forget to cover up.

bhaat khara hidnai garoh haha

Daal bhaat is really good, I like the whole concept of it. And the views hiking from Jomsom was spectacular.
