>>2414705Does Timberline still have that breakfast buffet?
For my normal hikes I have an early lunch, as I’m usually driving a few hours then starting my hike. On bigger trips it’s often something shelf stable because I’m car camping near the trail (instant grits with precooked bacon, powdered donuts, cliff bars, etc.) or IHOP or something if there’s time.
As for backpacking food, my go-to dinners are:
>Skurka’s beans and riceGoogle it. Easily my favorite. Instant refried beans, instant rice, taco seasoning, cheese, and Fritos.
>instant rice and sausageSeasoned with tomato powder, vegetable bullion, and Italian seasoning. Very simple and easy to find.
>Bear Creek cheese soup and tunaWeird combo but I like it. Great in cold weather.
I never cook lunch. It’s always something simple like pic. Shelf stable and ready to eat. Breakfasts is usually the same, but in colder weather I’ll sometimes make instant grits or oatmeal (usually grits). That’s a little more rare; we have more hot weather here than cold weather. My snacks are weather dependent as well. From April until October, chocolate won’t last in your pack.
