ok i do a lot of backcountry tramping and extended trip backpacking for sometimes over a week or two before i see civilization. i usually pack the same type of food and stick to the same cheap menu to ration off. my diet consists of the cheapest and most efficient way to get by without spending a ton of cash.
I break up bags of ramen (12) into a large freezer zip storage bag and put the mix into a snack size ziplock...i take 2 pounds of rice also stuffed into a large size freezer ziplock and a large container of peanut butter to complete the protein with the rice....and of course a baggie full of multi vitamins. this is very basic and very minimalistic, very bland. i have been using this method for quite some time and it gets me by for 2 1/2 to 3 weeks with a 10+ mile a day backcountry hike with a 35 pound pack.
i have been looking to expand my options and try some new shit. i was planning on a NOBO thru on the AT starting in early march so i was wondering, "what type of rations do other people with similar travels use?":dead_zombie:
