Have you considered this?



Very versatile, high protein, lean, lightweight, and quite tasty. Pop it into a sandwich baggie for camping and it will stay good for as long as you need it to. Fair warning, though, it is quite salty - rinse in water to wash away some of the extra salt before using.

Which stove did you get, bbro? I like my biolite stove a lot because it uses twigs, burns really hot and recharges my ipod or whatever uses USB chargers.

@Glinda - I'm not sure the dried beef is what I am looking for. It might be good on the trail for a snack, but I don't think it's good for mixing in with cous cous and soup or something similar. That's what I was thinking for with the dehydrated meat

@Pamela - I got this stove and this fuel source


Also, good news, I've apparently made some friends and I won't be on my own during my first hiking trip. They're going to come with me!!

Also, I am thinking of getting a hammock and a hammock stand. It seems like it would be comfortable.

Get one of those hammock stands with the hand crank that lets you adjust the elevation of the head end so you can use it as a recliner.

Good news on the friends.

A hammock stand sounds like a lot of extra weight and bulk to be carrying around when you can just use trees.

Good, much cheaper than hiring native porters. Nothing better than new friends who are willing to sleep with you in the woods.
