Re: OT: Alyssa, Appalachian Trail?

[Guest guest]

Alyssa,Did you say you would like to hike the Appalachian Trail one day?Yep! I think it would be amazing. I love camping, which stinks since all the foods that I can eat are rather perishable.. Eventually though, I think I should be able to work something out! Peace =)Alyssa 16 yo UC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)Azathioprine 50 mg 1x per dayPrednisone 40 mg 1x per day

I doubt I'll be able to go for a few years, but I will have to remember you live near there. Don't move yet! =) Peace =)Alyssa 16 yo UC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)Azathioprine 50 mg 1x per dayPrednisone 40 mg 1x per day

There's one lady whose son just did a two week hike, and she prepared and

dried all his meals.

<g> You could also develop a taste for pemmican -- dried meat and

rendered fat. The voyageurs and mountain men lived for months at a time

off it.

If you want to read an irreverent account of the Appalachian Trail, try

Bill Bryson's A Walk in The Woods.

Alyssa,You could dehydrate many things and not have to worry about it perishing! You can dehydrate coconut or nut flour breads so that they are crips like crackers, you can dehydrate yogurt, fruits, veggies, etc and all you need is water to rehydrate and cook. You can definitely make beef jerky, pemmican (Marilyn already sent the directions for that), and even spaghetti sauce and dehydrated zucchini for an instant spaghetti dinner!
