Well, I'm about to embark on my first backpacking trip. I'm heading to a section of the Sheltowee Trace. I'm very excited but also slightly humbled by the weight of the pack. I'm told my base weight of about 15 lbs. isn't bad, but it's a shame that I need food and water too. Man, that stuff adds up quick. I'm secretly looking forward to Sunday when my pack will be lighter after some fine dining.
I did some reading up on backpacking food because if I eat one more dried banana I'm pretty sure I'll hurl. I was very glad to read that oreos are frequently on the list of backpacking food. ;) Mine are ready!
